To clarify the rpmnew aspects, it seems this occurs if you have 
user-modified any of the sample kickstarts.

For instance, if you do "cobbler profile report" and you see 
"sample.ks", it's a good idea to copy the kickstarts
to something other than sample before the 1.4 upgrade.

We'll fix this soon.
