 I'd like to see vdr-1.6.0-21.fc11 included in F-11 GA.

 There have been significant changes in dir structure (due to Fedora's
 changed /srv policy) of the vdr package.  Recording dirs cannot just be
 moved around because they contain potentially hundreds of gigabytes of
 data, so the upgrade has been done by modifying existing config files on
 upgrades instead of moving data.

 There was one bit of this logic missing, tested now and working on my
 local VDR box, and that's included in vdr-1.6.0-21.fc11 I just built.

 Impact of not including this in F-11 GA would be that GA users who
 upgraded from earlier Fedora releases and move recordings around get them
 moved to an incorrect location which requires manual fixing and is bad
 also in the sense that people will first think vdr ate their data
 altogether as it disappears from the recordings list.
