I fiddle around with a new Nagios installation, then something stops

/etc/nagios/nagios.cfg but I cannot track it down.
As an example I could do:

mv /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg.mine
yum reinstall nagios --onlyfile /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg

What's the advantage over just yum reinstall nagios, given that modified config files are preserved? A known baseline is a huge advantage of RPM, and allowing retail installation seems to go against that.

Well, that's true; I was thinking of a more obscure case that happened to me with some config files and manipulated files under /usr/share but that's really a corner case. If I just save the file I get the same behaviour. Forget it.
