Are you sure that Connectiva's apt-get _runs_ the rpm in $PATH? AFAIK
their APT stuff links directly to the RPM C API and does not run rpm as
an external command. And in this case there cannot be a conflict.

You can't go back _easily_ with an rc command. But you can run the "opa"
command in a sub-shell and if you want to restore the settings just exit
from this sub-shell.
