Yup, comment characters in manifests, not '^#' so that input can be free field. Do you really care? Why? Created attachment 96738 [details]
allows escaped characters in manifest
Current apt-get generates such manifests (see URL in initial report). Patching
apt is required for backward compatibility, but it would be nice to have an
escape mechanism in rpm.
This patch allows '\' escaped characters in manifests and handles '#' in a
bash-like way (e.g. 'foo#bar' stays 'foo#bar', but 'foo #bar' becomes 'foo').

testsuite
I do not know how to integrate it into rpm, but here is a small testsuite for
the new functionality.
Is this still an issue on a more recent version of rpm? (Such as a 4.4.x version, as included in FC5 and FC6?) FC3 and FC4 are supported by Fedora Legacy for security fixes only, so can you please retest this in FC5 or FC6? *** Bug 130306 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** User pnasrat's account has been closed Reassigning to owner after bugzilla made a mess, sorry about the noise...
