selinux-policy-targeted outputs a bunch of stuff to the console during an
upgrade, this is an example output:
/sbin/restorecon reset /etc/cron.daily/000-delay.cron context
system_u:object_r:etc_t:s0->system_u:object_r:bin_t:s0

If this is important it should be sent to syslog with the logger command,
otherwise it should be surpressed.

I don't know if there is a guideline to prevent spurious output to the console
during upgrades, but there should be.

There is nothing more annoying than a package outputting a ton of stuff to your
console.  One really bad side effect is that you can no longer scroll back to
see which config files were backed up, and you have to run updatedb just to find
the .rpmnew/.rpmsave files again because some package spewed out a bunch of text
preventing you from just simply scrolling up to find out.
