I don't understand. What do you mean with "the disk is fixed"? With the
traditional one-transaction-per-package approach, zypper can apparently
overcome the file conflict with the %pre script. Or are you saying that there
is no such file conflict?

What options do we have to fix issues like this such that they work with
ZYPP_SINGLE_RPMTRANS=1, too?

I suggest that we add OpenQA tests for updates with ZYPP_SINGLE_RPMTRANS=1.
Otherwise we'll never be able to eliminate this kind of issue.
