I'm not a super experienced rpm user but I don't know of any way to do it directly with rpm but you could use a scriptlet to do the work. Depending on how the information needs to be added to the config file there are many ways to handle that part, whatever you can manage with common shell tools. 1. "cat" it onto the end? 2. sed The best situation I think would be if there's a <config>.d/ type directory where you can just drop a config file in it. That way if you ever want to update it you can create a new plugin package to replace the file, and yum erase will work properly.
