Question regarding RPM packaging of interactive software.

This software (gnumed-server, which is not yet in bugzilla) uses a
postgres database for storing data.

For subsequent installations (if tried), it simply overwrites the
database. In this process, it asks the user whether to overwrite the
DB or not. My initial thought was to backup the database somewhere and
continue. However, when I asked upstream, they replied that there is
no easy way to restore these databases.

Thanks.
