FYI: there are both --notriggers and --notriggerpostun disabler options

There are also other means to remove a header from an rpmdb.

You might state what you expect to happen instead of just listing
certain commands under the pretense rpm4/rpm5 incompatibilities
in the future.

You have two packages installed and you do not know how to "fix" that
condition. And so you start claiming incompatibilities as if that were
the root cause of your woes (which it isn't afaict).

Yes there are differences in trigger behavior in rpm-5.4.10, been that way for years,
nothing new: that isn't your problem here.
