Mmmh, what can the RPM do?
1) add files (e.g. the program files)
2) modify files (e.g. config files)
3) environemt settings (or is that 2?)
So the scenario would be:
- create the rpm
- compare these modifications
1) checked against the content of a (unzipped) zip file
2) check if our settings are inserted
3) dito
- clean
problem: have to backup the files for 2) before and hope that
no files else were modified. Or is there a possibility on *nix to
undo an installation?

We cant actually install an RPM; you need to be root. But there are some
rpm commands to list the contents of a repository; we could parse the
output and look for strings.
