Description:

Instead of creating .pacnew files for /usr/share/config/kdm/Xstartup (and probably related scripts in the same directory), the upgrade process overwrites these files. This is rather troubling for users who rely on them for a correctly working Xorg server, for example due to nvidia Optimus.


Additional info:
* Happened during upgrade to 4.11.11-1


Steps to reproduce:
1. Edit /usr/share/config/kdm/Xstartup
2. Upgrade/Install kdebase-workspace
This task depends upon
