[issue212] wrong error message on rpm -U cpio failure

[Pascal Bleser at Labix Tracker]

New submission from Pascal Bleser <guru at unixtech.be>:

When upgrading a package to another version with a directory being changed into
a symlink, rpm -U reports the following:
error: unpacking of archive failed on file /opt/kde3/share/apps/celestia: cpio:
rename failed - Is a directory

But when upgrading with smart, it gives the following message:
error: unpacking of archive failed on file /opt/kde3/share/apps/celestia: cpio:
rename failed - Resource temporarily unavailable
(which is not very helpful)
