Comment 2 for bug 542115

This bug was fixed in the package rpm - 4.8.1-5

---------------
rpm (4.8.1-5) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fix compilation on hurd and kfreebsd (Closes: #587366).

rpm (4.8.1-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * Package rpm-common needs to be arch:any because it's content is different
    for each platform (LP: #574647).
  * Tighten dependency on rpm-common.
  * Fix build failure on arm (Closes: #587173).

rpm (4.8.1-3) unstable; urgency=low

  * Upload to unstable as python 2.6 is there.
  * Remove build dependency on beecrypt, it is not used at all (was replaced
    by NSS some time ago).
  * Also libneon does not seem to be used anymore.
  * Add missing build dependency on pkg-config.

rpm (4.8.1-2) experimental; urgency=low

  * Build depend on autopoint.

rpm (4.8.1-1) experimental; urgency=low

  * New upstream release.
    - Fix vulnerability in removing setuid on moved files (Closes: #584257,
      CVE-2010-2059).
    - Safer parsing of spec file (CVE-2010-2197).
  * Build depend on python-all-dev (>= 2.6) and cleanup debian/rules to again
    use all supported versions (which will anyway mean just 2.6).

rpm (4.8.0-4) experimental; urgency=low

  * Use new conditionals in symbol files and define symbols for sparc64
    (Closes: #572766).
  * Move default RPM database path to ~/.rpm.
    - Fixes problem with no accessible Names database (Closes: #551669,
    LP: #530023).

  * Document above changes in NEWS and README.Debian.

rpm (4.8.0-3) experimental; urgency=low

  * Do not require --force-debian for installing packages, just complain that
    user should use alien. This allows easily people to shoot in the foot,
    however --force-debian switch seems to be too unpopular (Closes: #565421).
  * Bump standards to 3.8.4.

  * Unfuzzy other patches.
  * Build depend on python 2.6, adjust Python-Version according to that.
  * Build agains python 2.6 for experimental.
  * Rename library packages after soname bump.
