Thanks for your reply. Of all the 21 RPMS I have the control of editing the
spec file of only one RPM, remaining all are the patch rpms downloaded. My
Patch-list.1.1.1.2-1.noarch.rpm will take the backup of all the .conf file
before the installation of patches. thats the reason which I need to install
this RPM in the first
