Openpkg uuid and platform files - used?

Hi all,

Does kolab makes use of the files:

/kolab/etc/openpkg/uuid
/kolab/etc/openpkg/platform 

I'm moving our kolab build from Debian to CentOS.  From

http://wiki.kolab.org/index.php/Backups_for_kolab2

it is recommended that the entire /kolab/etc directory is saved, however it 
doesn't explicitly suggest that these backups are suitable for migration.

The openpkg are both unique to the build, as far as I can tell.  I'm not too 
worried about the platform file, seeing as how both machines are running x86 
linux installs but the uuid file is (according to the openpkg documentation) 
simply a unique identifier.  

Is this file used in kolab?  I've built the new server from a clean install.  
Is there any reason to keep one or the other uuid file?


Thanks and regards

Simon Barrett
