[Yum] Suggestion for yum's rpm

Hi,

First of all: yum is great, thank you.

I noticed that the rpm for yum, will overwrite the file /etc/cron.daily/yum.cron,
instead of what I feel is the correct behaviour (preserve it, as /etc/yum.conf).
I think this should really be changed on the package.

I'm talking about the package at:

http://linux.duke.edu/projects/yum/download/2.0/yum-1.98-1.noarch.rpm

(for RH9), I have not checked if the same is true for RH8.0 or previous packages.

I'm not on the list, so please CC me on the thread.

Carlos
