That looks like a bug in itself.

The last time I looked at something similar, I saw this: RPM would not
adjust a pre-existing symbolic link to a new target very late in the
transaction.  Like deleting old files which are gone in an update or
downgrade, this does *not* happen when the unpacking of the replacement
package happens, but towards the conclusion of the transaction.  In the
meantime, scriptlets run with the broken file system.

In your case, maybe one of the scriptlet errors prevented the final step
with the adjustment of the symbolic link by RPM.

(Just to be clear, the symbolic link is regularly packaged, it's not
something that we manage using scripts.)

Thanks,
Florian
