%description
After an update with up2date/apt/yum/rpm rpm makes .rpmnew copies of
all files it knows it should not overwrite. Of course you have to look
at all those files and merge any changes. A tedious and much forgotten
job.

On FreeBSD there is mergemaster to do the job. It recently got ported
to OpenBSD and also to Gentoo. Now there is also a Linux version (not
a port) :)

*.rpm{save,old,new) files located (along with original files).
Sysadmin may define list of system wide and user-specific dirs.

runtimedir (default is \$TMPDIR) - temporary dir (/tmp if \$TMPDIR is
undefined). Usualy may be omited.

Additionaly, user may specify list of dirs as command-line arguments
(all of them must be writable for him).
