@jasontibbitts In Mageia and OpenMandriva, rpmlint is executed as a post-build
check through rpmbuild itself, like so:
```rpmspec
%_build_pkgcheck_set /usr/bin/rpmlint -f %{_sourcedir}/%{name}.rpmlintrc
%_build_pkgcheck_srpm /usr/bin/rpmlint -f %{_sourcedir}/%{name}.rpmlintrc
This would probably be better as an rpmlint check, except then it might be
ignored.
Certainly from RPM's perspective, having a %pretrans scriptlet written in shell
or anything else is perfectly valid. Only a distro like Fedora which cares
about every package being installable into an empty
Nope, still works as expected...

Yes it will, that's the whole point. If it doesn't, then we've broken something.

Well, but it will not fail if you install the bash package with it. Still the
pretrans scriptlet won't work.

Um, what do you mean? It *is* a dependency issue, a package with /bin/sh (or
similar) %pretrans
Well, we should at least issue a warning that the package cannot be installed
on an empty system.
This issue is kinda worsened by the fact that this will not create a dependency
issue but rather an ordering problem that is more or less ignored up to the
point where the script fails.

Well, technically it's perfectly okay to have a package that's only installable
after the OS installation, not all packages live in repositories and get
installed as a part of system installation. We also do handle this correctly
for almost a decade - such a package fails cleanly
There is no way to run a %pretrans script that relies on anyhting but lua as it
will run on an empty system for new installs. RPM should just reject to create
such scriptlet in the first place.
