[Installer] rpm -e update

Hey Alex,

You are right.

When I run rpm -e
everything is cleaned out except for
apacheds's home directory and the immediate
sub directories.

So if I do
[root@/usr/local/apacheds-1.5.0]# rpm -e apacheds

Then I'm just left with this:
[root@/usr/local/apacheds-1.5.0]# tree
|-- bin
|-- conf
|-- lib
`-- var

Note also that var is empty.

My initial assumption/expectation was
that it would remove everything, including the
root apacheds-1.5.0 directory.

When the installer uses the FHS layout,
the partitions will be housed in
/var/partitions/...
which will hopefully make rpm upgrades
easy to manage.

Cheers,
- Ole
