I've been communicating with the maintainer of RPM on the pull request
and it's become clear that this likely depends on the creation of a
public, supportable API for RPM. This is not achievable within the
window for Fedora 34, so I'm withdrawing the change for Fedora 34 at
this time. I will continue to work on this, and expect to re-submit for
Fedora 35.

Just a reminder for those interested: I'm giving a talk at CentOS Dojo
on this topic on Friday at 17:00 CET[2]

Regards, Matthew.
