And that is exactly my point -- the *package* should not be overriding the decisions made at the *system* level. For example, let's say I had set /etc/sysconfig/bootloader to "lilo" -- installing grub, however, would have overwritten the lilo installed bootloader.
True, but I don't think we can fix it. :(
I think it can be fixed. the rpm postinstall scripts can very easily check /etc/sysconfig/bootloader and stop there if bootloader is not empty or 'grub'.
