Description Richard Biener 2009-03-05 14:13:00 UTC 
This time triggered by updating bash.

This causes a new bootstrap during which at some point bash is built which
builds libreadline6.rpm.  Immediately libreadline5.rpm from the old bash
version is deleted which causes the whole repository to be broken because
there are still libreadline5 dependencies.

Proposed solution: clean old packages only after the whole repository has
been re-built.

The shared-library packaging policy makes SO-name transitions much less
painful this way.
