Don't know what you're trying to do, but the usual solution is to include a 
seperate script file for configuration in the RPM and simply print a message 
during the installation requesting you to run it after the installation is 
over and run the application via some wrapper that checks if the config 
script has been run and if not run it on the first start up of the 
application.

Hope this helps,
