I experienced the following going from both 3.2.5 and 3.2.6 (using 
'official' gluster packages) on RHEL6.

[root at rhesproddns02 ~]# rpm -Uvh glusterfs-*3.3.0*

xdr_gf_event_notify_rsp
warning: %post(glusterfs-server-3.3.0-1.el6.x86_64) scriptlet failed, 
exit status 127

I copied /etc/glusterd/* to /var/lib/glusterd/ and it seems to work. Is 
there some other issue I should expect to hit, or is the rpm just broken 
in a weird way?
