problems with rpm-4

[Fernan Aguero]

Hi!

this is related to a recent post of mine to emulation@ but
the question is now a separate one.

I've been using the base rpm-3.0.6 in /usr/local/bin to
install rpm packages under /compat/linux:

rpm --ignoreos --root /compat/linux --dbpath /var/lib/rpm \
--replacepkgs -i filename.rpm

Due to a particular need from one rpm, I decided to update
rpm to 4.0.4 (archivers/rpm4). This file was a rpm for
python-2.2.3 and I already fulfilled all dependencies. The
last one was a requirement for rpm4.

Now, with rpm4 installed I get a very long list of
dependencies (see below). All of them are fake, since they
are all installed by emulators/linux_base-8 or have been
installed by myself using rpm-3.0.6. I already checked that they
were all present in /compat/linux.

Ayone has any idea of what is happening here?

Thanks,

Fernan
