Re: createrep question

I am advised to "lawyer up", so I cannot send the raw header dump you
requested. (Pesky non-disclosure agreement.) I am sending an ascii
header dump of the COTS RPM tags and their respective value data type. A
few generic tag values are exposed. Also attached is the script that
dumps these headers.

>From these tags observe that there is no 'sourcerpm' or 'sourcepackage'
tag.

I apologize for being obtuse.

Thanks for your help!

I suspect 'relaxing' that behavior will result in other 'interesting' 
results/behavior.

If you cannot provide the actual rpm - how about providing the header of
the rpm?

run this script against the rpm, it'll output a pkgname.hdr file - send
me that file.
