After sgml-data installation, the following files appear under /etc:
/etc/xml/sgml-data.xml
/etc/xml/sgml-data.xml.bak
/etc/sgml/sgml-data.cat
/etc/sgml/sgml-data.cat.old
Upon removal, the last 3 remain, and ultimately cause the piuparts
failure. So, when removing the sgml-data package, I am removing
sgml-data files from etc.
Are you suggesting that i shouldn't use the wildcards? if not, what is
the issue?
