oe-core preferred version in RPM5.  The RPM4 version that was recently added
should have this support.  So if the users have enabled the -oe-core- version of
RPM4 and are getting these failures then bugs should be filed.

I was referring to the community version of RPM 4.  I've seen people trying to
build packages w/ OE, and then install them on their Red Hat or other ARM
targets and it didn't work in the manner described.
