Patch Set 1: Verified+1

Works, but not sure that's what we want. Before that I had in my log:

PACKAGE: zip-3.0-1.el6.x86_64                          Mon 30 Dec 2013 09:53:08 
AM IST

After that, it's:

PACKAGE: zip-3.0-1.el6.x86_64                          Mon Dec 30 09:53:08 2013

so it changes anyway - if someone wants to parse this, they'll have a hard time 
anyway.

We might also want 'TZ=' to always output UTC.

I can see 3 options:

1. Do nothing, give up on installation timestamp

2. Merge mostly as-is (with LANG=C or LC_ALL=C as Sandro now suggested, TZ=)

3. Do something more complex with a stable, parsable output. Sadly rpm can't 
accept a date format, so we can:

3.1. output timestamp, e.g. "rpm -q --queryformat '%{name} %{installtime}\n'"
zip 1388389988

3.2. same and convert using e.g. gawk or a shell loop calling date:

LANG=C TZ= rpm -q --queryformat '%{name} %{installtime}\n' zip | TZ= gawk 
'{printf("%s %s\n", $1, strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %Z", $2))}'

zip 2013-12-30 07:53:08 UTC

 TZ=
 LANG=C
 rpm -q --queryformat '%{name} %{installtime}\n' zip | while read p ts; do echo 
"${p}" $(date +"%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %Z" -d @"${ts}"); done

(same output)

3.3. rpm -q --queryformat '%{name} %{installtime:date}\n'

zip Mon Dec 30 09:53:08 2013

All of them are too complex or too ugly or both.
