+It happens b/c filesystem as a %pretrans
+runTransScripts() calls rpmteProcess() which says:
+    /* Dont bother opening for elements without pre/posttrans scripts */
+
+But since we now have package with %pretrans due to /usr migration,
+it goes further and calls rpmteOpen()->rpmteFDHeader()
+which notifys us about a package opening in order to get its file descriptor.
+
+Since we now have %pretrans scriptlets, I'll adapt urpmi in order not to
+bump index out of actual transaction.
