[ovirt-users] Non-RHEL RPMs gone after RHV-H upgrade

[Ryan Barry]

Hey Colin -

You're correct -- they will persist. However, there's only a plugin for
yum, and not bare RPM. If the packages were installed with "rpm -Uvh ...",
they won't be 'sticky'. I believe this is also part of the documentation.

If you don't remember whether you used yum or not, you can check
/var/imgbased/persisted-rpms/ to see if anything is present.
