Thanks for doing it.

Warnings:


1) It will not work with older RPM versions (< SuSE 10.0), which does
not implement %posttrans.

I see no possible work-around for it.


2) "rpm --test" will not work properly in OpenSUSE <= 10.2 - %posttrans
was called even in test mode:
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=235361

A work-around can be:

%post
touch /var/adm/%name-rpm_post_called

%posttrasn
# Verify, that the script is not called by mistake in test mode (#235361):
if test -f /var/adm/%name-rpm_post_called
rm /var/adm/%name-rpm_post_called
...
fi
