Hi, if you never heard of /var/adm/update-scripts and your packages are not using it, you can ignore this. In the good old times, libzypp wasn't able to handle RPM %posttrans scripts correct (which shows, that the old times were not always good ;) ). A workaround for this was to use update-scripts. Since some years (SLE12) libzypp supports now RPM %posttrans scripts, so there is no need anymore to use update-scripts as workaround. The maintainers would like now to remove support of /var/adm/update-scripts from libzypp. Why? Because it creates a lot of additional efford for everybody. You have to implement everything twice (once for RPM, once for libzypp) and test everything twice. And since this is so much work, a lot of developer don't do that, which leads to bugs depending on how you install or update a package. So, if you use update-scripts as RPM %posttrans replacement, please change your spec files to only use RPM %posttrans scripts. If you need update-scripts for something else and you cannot remove it, please speak up now. But you should have a good answer to "what does happen if your package is installed or updated with plain rpm?".
