Description of problem: rpm is generating again i18ntable tags (100). These tags seem to be empty strings right now (due to i18n not being included in packages since RHL 6.2). Since these tags are not used, I think they should be removed again. Also default rpm should not add such tags to make the default rpm more usable for ISV vendors to use it. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
Other distributions such as PLD, Connectiva (and thus I assume Mandriva) use i18n tags, packages in Fedora Extras use i18n tags. >>> import os, rpm >>> ts=rpm.ts() >>> f = open("allegro-4.0.3-7.i386.rpm") >>> h = ts.hdrFromFdno(f.fileno()) >>> h[100] ['C', 'es', 'fr', 'it']
