Probably not, as the prescript isn't notified.
The prescript should not be refreshonly and specify a sensible "onlyif"
or "unless" check, so the original design is alright. (I'd use rpm -q if
possible.)
You can save reduncancy by merely adding
Package {
require => Exec["bash prescript"],
notify => Exec["bash postscript"]
}
to the original code.
