/* In order to support in-place upgrades, we must immediately remove
obsolete platform directories after installing a new glibc
version. RPM only deletes files removed by updates near the end
of the transaction. If we did not remove the obsolete platform
directories here, they would be preferred by the dynamic linker
during the execution of subsequent RPM scriptlets, likely
resulting in process startup failures. */
