Seems you are all MS-Windows guys: If the package manager would overwrite
existing files, there'd be no reason to restart any process. What the package
manager does is to unlink the name from the inode and then recreate a new inode
assigning the same name. If you don't understand this difference, you don't
understand how UNIX works. I'm kind of shocked to read such nonsense in this
list.
