first describe what that trigger supposed  to do :)

but, as it's a trigger on same package, i guess situation, when it gets ran is 
really an functional system, ie the upgrade.

i doubt you have system with only old setup installed and then you upgrade and 
the trigger gets fired.

but otherways, you should compile static-c program to do the job, but also you 
could do inline lua scripting i believe?

%triggerpostin -p <lua>
LUA SCRIPTING LANGUAGE HERE.

i don't know lua, i only know it's possible, as i had similiar situation with 
glibc package :)
