[Freeipa-devel] [PATCH] 853 remove upgrade state when uninstalling

The upgrade process makes saves some information in the IPA sysrestore 
state. If any of this state remains after an uninstall then you will get 
an error during re-install. Theoretically all this state should be 
removed as part of the upgrade process but on the outside chance, lets 
remove the state at uninstall to prevent problems.

I've had just one report of this, it may have been due to a blown 
upgrade, I'm not sure. I've been unable to reproduce it but at worst 
this is a noop and at best allows easy re-installation.

This requires patch 852.
