I just updated and see these *rpm.new files for some config files and 
others. I googled it to see what action I should take and found a couple 
but looking to see what you all do. Here's what I found:

|for a in $(find /etc /var -name '*.rpm?*'); do diff -u $a ${a%.rpm?*}; done

Also, another:

As we see, a new repo config files were not installed to the usual place 
(because of the modifications we made to the original versions). Just 
move the new files over:

[VE]# mv -f /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates.repo.rpmnew /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates.repo       
[VE]# mv -f /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora.repo.rpmnew /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora.repo

Don't forget to remove the rpm file:

[VE]# rm -f fedora-release-8-3.noarch.rpm

Thanks for any advice.  Jim
