Well, when you upgrade a package which provides some service, the usual=20
practice is to add some preinst/postinst script to the RPM in order to=20
stop the service before the upgrade (preinst run /etc/init.d/afs stop)=20
and start it again after the upgrade has completed (i.e. start again in
the postinst script).

I guess this is what you'd like to have in the OpenAFS spec file, too...
