We couldn't even dream of automatic migration without preserving the original
paths.
That said, @mcurlej pointed out last week there's another option for doing the
automatic migration: leave the original files in place as-is, and symlink from
~/.config/rpm to them. It's less error-prone and less intrusive. It's also not
much of a migration, except to guarantee we always have that XDG dir, but then
*that* was the main motivation behind this to begin with. Only, it no longer
matters as much.
If the migration is manually invoked with some --migrateconfig switch or such,
it needs a whole lot less guarding.
