Comment # 8 on bug 1204103 from Takashi Iwai

Sorry for the late follow up, as I've been off in this week.

It's an unfortunate problem that is specific to rpm about the package update;
we've hit a similar problem in the past for sof-firmware package (happening at
switching from a directory to a symlink), and a similar *very dirty* workaround
would be needed for kernel-firmware, too.  Sigh.

As a workaround, simply remove the directory /usr/lib/firmware/qcom/LENOVO
before the update.  Or, just uninstall kernel-firmware-qcom package once
  rpm -e --nodeps kernel-firmware-qcom
then update kernel-firmware-* again.

Will work on the workaround in the package soon later.
