short explanation: yes
longer one:
rpm doesn't just do a "rpm2cpio | cpio -id"; this little bastard
extract all files in temp files such as /dev/toto =>
/dev/toto;54d4af6, and rename them all after all files've been
extracted; thus he can roll back if the cpio is corrupted.
this is why the new rpm will install faster ...
