%config(noreplace) does not mean that unedited config files will not be replaced
- they will. The difference in behaviour between %config and %config(noreplace)
comes in when the user has edited the config file. With %config, the user's
edited file will be renamed to file.rpmsave and the new package's config file
will take its place. With %config(noreplace), the user's edited file will be
left alone and the new package's file will be installed as file.rpmnew.

%config(noreplace) should generally be used for config files unless there's a
good reason not to use (noreplace).
