| Summary: Maintain symbolic links determining default commands | |
update-alternatives creates, removes, maintains and displays information about the symbolic links comprising the alternatives system. It is possible for several programs fulfilling the same or similar functions to be installed on a single system at the same time. For example, many systems have several text editors installed at once. This gives choice to the users of a system, allowing each to use a different editor, if desired, but makes it difficult for a program to make a good choice of editor to invoke if the user has not specified a particular preference.

- Migrate u-a data from /var/lib/rpm instead of relying on dbpath:
no u-a version ever installed files explicitly into dbpath, but
always hard specified /var/lib/rpm. The fact that RPM moved its
database is irrelevant to update-alternatives. In case RPM moved
it's database, our files are still accessible via the
/var/lib/rpm symlink being put in place.
- Drop the arbitrary depenency on a specific rpm version: the idea
was to ensure to have an rpm with the new dbpath location in
place. For one, the dependency does not work as intended, and
2nd, as the migration now happens explicitly from the old u-a
admindir without relying on dbpath, is no longer needed.
