Note that rpm < 4.6.0 did behave differently here: packages with

a chance you've tested on RHEL/Centos at some point, that could explain it
as it'd then be just a matter of which order the packages got installed
in.
That could well explain why we've only seen this reported on EPEL 5.
I thought it was a coincidence, but looks like it could be the older
RPM version there.
