From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.16-22 i686; Nav) When running kpackage on PowerTools packages, they all display weird dependencies looking like: rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) (<= 4.0-1), ld-linux.so.2 , libc.so.6 , libncurses.so.5 , libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.0) , libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.1) , libc.so.6 (GLIBC_2.1.3) , rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) (<= 3.0.4-1) I mean, the rpmlib dependencies Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run kpackage 2. go for PowerTools packages (at least) 3. click on any package
The rpmlib(...) dependencies are real. They are used internally by rpm (and are satisfied by rpmlib, not a specific package) to track certain features/incompatibilities in rpm packaging. You can see the complete set of rpmlib dependencies, with a 1 line description, by typing rpm --showrc
