What is a problem though, is that rpm seldom allows you to see what

Hard to build a good framework when you can do just about anything in a
scriptlet. I mean, one could put "awktris" in the scriptlet for kernels
while the user waits for the hardlink step. ;) In other words, any old
scriptlet can return any old return code and enforcing a rule in
up2date based on a subset would be next to impossible.
