 You can use the rpm feature OrderWithRequires ... this works the same
way as Requires, but it doesn't require the packages it only affects
the install order if they are in the same transaction (if foo requires
bar, then bar must be installed before foo in a transaction).
 That was added in rpm-4.9.
