Subject: rpm-4.0.4 test release, take 0

I've copied an initial build of rpm-4.0.4 packages at

	ftp://ftp.rpm.org/pub/rpm/test-4.0.4

There are packages for all supported Red Hat platforms there.

These packages have not been tested *AT ALL*, I'm getting my
ducks in a row for releasing rpm-4.0.4 in the next 7-10 days.

I am however interested in problem reports, in bugzilla please:

	http://bugzilla.redhat.com

particularly on non-i386 and non-linux platforms. I'm very certain that
there are gonna be build problems on non-linux platforms, as rpm now has
a hard wired
	LIBS=-lrt -lpthreads
in configure, and that can't possibly be right for non-linux platforms.

I'll try to get a description posted here on rpm-list of what has changed
in rpm-4.0.4 in the next day or two.

Meaanwhile, here's the CHANGES from rpm-4.0.4:

- turn off rpm-perl until it's self-hosting.
- jigger up rpm-python with python-2.2b2 for now.
- remove libtoolize from %%configure for now (#57039).
- teach find-requires to autogenerate GCC_3.0 dependencies.
- solaris: translate i86pc to i386 (#57182).
- fix: %GNUconfigure breaks with single quotes (#57264).
- look for PY_VERSION 2.2c1.
- fix: typo in find-requires.
- tru64 compiler message cleanup.
- add buildarch lines for hppa (#57728).
- sparc: make dbenv per-rpmdb, not per-dbi.
<ldv: rpm-4.0.3-alt3 is here>
- handle lazy db open's in chroot with absolute path, not prefix strip.
- Depends should use CDB if configured.
- autodetect python 1.5/2.2.

- add internal (customized) version of zlib.
- fix: %exclude functional (again).
- trap SIGILL for ppc64 inline asm voodoo fix from cross-dressed ppc32.
- rpm-perl: force numeric comparison on rpm version (#58882).
