Getting errors during Splunk Upgrade from 6.3x to 6.4.2 and UI view conflicts.

Hi folks,

We are upgrading from Splunk 6.3x to 6.4.2 and got Warning in the migration log for DMC:

App "splunk_managment_console" has an overriding copy of the "reports.xml" , thus the new version may not be in effect. Location = /opt/splunk/etc/apps/splunk_management_console/default/data/ui/views

This happens for "reports.xml", "dashboards.xml", "alerts.xml"

Is this a problem? (or bug) . Should we do any manual workaround?
Cheers
