The problem is Perl-RPM picks the wrong rpm binary to get the rpm version
string. It should use the rpm just build, not the one on the system.
Comment 1 Jeff Johnson 2002-03-30 19:56:20 UTC 
Perl-rpm is not self hosting.

Build without, install, build again.

Comment 3 hjl 2002-03-31 08:08:29 UTC 
I submitted a patch. It may not be suitable in the Perl-RPM
package. But it can be used inside the rpm source and applied
from the spec file.
Comment 4 Jeff Johnson 2004-10-10 14:15:32 UTC 
perl-RPM has been removed from rpm sub-packages.
