Hello,

within rpm installation of package x i try in %pre to find out with rpm -q if package y is already installed. Seems that in rpm-3.x rpmdb is locked from the start, same script works with rpm-4.x its not a dependency/conflict etc., all i want is to echo some information if package y is also installed. Do i have some alternatives?
