Description Michael Schröder 2003-09-18 13:50:36 UTC

If a user cannot be found in the passwd and rpm turns of an s-bit
a broken header will be written to the packages database (bad header
SHA1 digest). The code in question contains a nice "XXX this diddles header
memory" comment (line 1717 psm.c).
