Hi Daniel, I've just met a problem linked to that patch... Indeed, it appears that your modifications make the original patch work as intended: check if there are problems like RPMPROB_NEW_FILE_CONFLICT or RPMPROB_FILE_CONFLICT, then remove the packages from the list of packages to apply (because it's attempt-install), then try the same transaction again...
The problem is: if not all the packages have problems, then the packages that didn't have problems installing in the first place will now get an error: "package already installed"!!! And since it's not one of the problems that are handled in pm.py, it will just fail... What do you think would be the best way to solve this: add a check for all the codes linked to package already installed in the "attempt-only" check in pm.py? Or try to cancel the whole previous transaction - and then keep on committing the new one? I can generate a new patch if you want, after your guidance, or let you fix it, like you prefer. I do have an environment where I can reproduce this problem easily enough.

This could happen for example if the RPM database is partially corrupted such that the transaction does not have any problems like conflicts or missing dependencies, but still can't be committed. The added patch fixes the problem in the upstream sources; one of the existing patches has to be adjusted to still apply.
