Just an idea.. Yum-cron can download updates to user cachedir without
holding the /var/run/yum.pid lock. 'yum update' then just preloads
RPMs from the user cachedir.
- Must preload before 'predownload' hook, otherwise presto etc would
try to download it anyway.
- Source is user-writable, do an extra copy before verifyLocalPkg().
I can't think of a safe way to avoid this.
