Greetings. I've been seeing some strange behavior with the "alpine" package in Fedora 8 and 9 recently.
The gist of it is that there don't seem to be any configuration files for alpine, even though RPM lists them.

No complaints from the installer. OK, what got installed?
[root@localsys ~]# rpm -ql alpine /etc/pine.conf /etc/pine.conf.fixed
Those files are marked as %ghost %config(noreplace) which means they're not present by default, but will be used and won't be removed/modified by alpine updates.
