F20 numerous package scriptlet failures

[Suvayu Ali]

Hi,

I'm seeing a bunch of package scriptlet failures in F20.  I would like
to think this some problem on my side (although I can't think sh being
so badly broken) than horrible QA.

Some examples:

history list

That's 5 transactions with complete failures!  Some of the failures
could be triggered by a failure in a dependency.  I find it strange that
even a package like redhat-lsb fails!

If anyone has any bright ideas, that would be really helpful.  And here
is a more detailed list of script failures (separated by transaction):
