Thanks for the ref, Danek.
If the value of this attribute is 'renameold', then the
existing file will be renamed, and the new file will be put
in its place.
If the value of this attribute is 'renamenew', then the
existing file will be left alone, and the new file will be
installed with a new name.
If the value of this attribute is 'strawberry', then the
existing file will be left alone, and the new file will not
be installed.
Any explanation for the term 'strawberry?' I'm put in mind of filenames
like 'cherry.py' and suitably amused, but wouldn't something like
'noinstallnew' be a bit more self-documenting?
Also, any control over what form the rename takes?
thx, --emk
