can't upgrade to kolab 2.3.0 or 2.3.1

[Paul Klos]

Hi Divan,

I remember having similar issues after migrating my kolab machine from kubuntu 
to gentuu, which resulted in a different platform name, and confused the hell 
out of the kolob install script. If I recall, the problem was caused by the 
script sometimes looking at the host, and sometimes at what was already 
installed in the OpenPKG environment.

In my case, this was related to https://issues.kolab.org/issue3138. 
Unfortunately, I don't remember exactly how I managed to fix it. I think I had 
to run the upgrade a few times to get it right. Once the openpkg rpm package 
had been rebuilt, the rest would go ok (I believe, no guarantees here, it's 
just too long ago).

Have you tried re-running the upgrade?

Cheers,

Paul
