Here we come again to a "config" problem.  /etc/inittab is marked as
a configuration file.  Even if that would get translated that would
not help you at all as on the next update all these translations
would be silently clobbered.  Those files likely should be even
"config noreplace".

That probably could be worked around by adding some extra file rpm
knows nothing about.  OTOH if you would want to modify some options
for already existing ones then on a longer run you are SOL.
