Did something change in cpio, or has it always been broken for regular file
to directory replacement too, and our docs were thus always incomplete ?
It was always this way.
The same for replacing a file with symlink. Or vice versa.
Ok, so the packaging docs should say that /any/ change in file type between
dir, regular & symlink needs special handling with lua scriptlets. I'll see
about submitting a docs patch.
Basically, if there's a directory involved, it can't be replaced on way
or the other. A symlink to a directory is treated as a directory, so
that counts. Otherwise file types can change.
Looking at this thread, rpm isn't detecting all the cases as conflicts
as it should.
