PS: Oh, and I don't see why this cannot be fixed by a %pretrans scriptlet in
filesystem rather than a script we have to run by hand. That's what
%pretrans is for. (We successfully used %pretrans to convert directories to
symlinks or the opposite in a couple cases in KDE packaging in the past.
None were directories as important as the ones being touched by UsrMove
though!) And the scriptlet having been written BEFORE starting to convert
packages should have been a requirement for approving this feature.
