Summary and Info:

pre_upgrade scriptlet shows output of scriplets before telling it update the package.
This display can be confusing for users as we cannot make difference between output of previous package post_upgrade.

Here an exemple where errors in virtualbox-dkms-host pre-upgrade, are displayed before announcing update of virtualbox-dkms-host package.
