RPM as in "Redhat Package Manager"?
But how in the world would you know the place, where the web container 
is installed on the target machine?
I'm not terribly familiar with RPM, but to me this would make sense 
only, if an RPM can contain an additional script that is run upon 
install, where you can try to get things straight.

Why not use a small shellscript which copies the module files and 
triggers the CMS shell to import them?
