Hello Jeff,

but what about a simple transaction log in e.g. /var/log, like we have for 
apt:
eos:/var/log> tail apt.log
Sun Dec  4 21:06:37 2005;install;python-qt;3.5.0-8
Sun Dec  4 21:06:37 2005;upgrade;kdeaddons3-konqueror;3.4.2-7 => 3.5.0-5
Sun Dec  4 21:06:37 2005;upgrade;kdemultimedia3-mixer;3.4.2-8 => 3.5.0-7
Sun Dec  4 21:06:37 2005;upgrade;kdebindings3-python;3.4.2-3 => 3.5.0-8

Or do:
eos:/var/log> grep remove apt.log
Tue Jul  5 21:43:44 2005;remove;RealPlayer;10.0.3-5
Sun Dec  4 11:08:16 2005;remove;kdebluetooth;0.0.svn20050814-10

This way it is very easy to track what happened (concerning rpms).  Of course 
this tracking can be done by apt, smart, etc.  but a native transaction 
logging by rpm (in /var/log/rpm.log), would be very much appreciated!
