The pre-uninstall script for athena-krb5-8.4-10.i386.rpm has a
bug. The script is currently:

[ $1 = 0 ] || exit 0
sed -e '\,/usr/athena/etc/login.krb5,d' /etc/conf.getty > /etc/conf.getty.new
mv /etc/conf.getty.new/sedout /etc/conf.getty

/etc/conf.getty.new is a file, so /etc/conf.getty.new/sedout doesn't
exist, and the script dies.

Also, shouldn't this type of temporary file be created in /tmp?
