I posted a transactioninfo.py with a set of classes in them - anticipate
that being close to what yum may pass to XTrigger.

Anticipate it will also pass where in the process yum is (pre-trans,
post-trans, pre-package-trans, post-package-trans)

In the case of pre-package and post-package it will should also include
a unique indentifier of which package is being acted on.

However, I've been thinking about about the pre-package-trans and
post-package-trans and I'm trying to figure out a situation where it'd
be useful to run something there that's not already covered by the
pre-trans and post-trans.

Thoughts?
