Is it possible that what you're trying to accomplish might be better

Yeah, it occurred to me last night triggers might be better.
I don't have more details or I'd share them. This is for a customer
I'm supporting through a middleman.
Thanks for the suggestion.
What is not clear to me is what the "install before" prerequisite
condition is.
From a logical POV, the vendor package has no dependencies and so
can be installed in any order. Yes, there may be dependencies that
were not
included, but that is exactly what I am missing.
FWIW, you can likely bundle the vendor rpm into another rpm, and
install in a %post script, if you absolutely must somehow order some
operation before installing the vendor rpm. That's the best I could
figger
last night without additional info ...
