The problem is moving from /var/run as directory to /var/run as symlink. rpm just can't do that.
No really true. If you can modify the updated package you should be able to use the pretrans trigger.
%pretrans mv dir dir.rpmsave ln -s dir.rpmsave dir
Argh, not again. Folks, pretrans triggers *must* be lua scripts, otherwise you can never install a new system. Also, pretrans triggers are called *before* checking for file conflicts, so they should be as lightweight as possible. Running a 'mv' command is not lightweight. (And 'mv' is also not availible in a fresh installation.) The correct way to do this is to symlink in the other direction in lua and cleanup in %pre or %post.
