Description Chris Adams 2002-01-26 18:05:17 UTC 
The Makefile.PL for Perl-RPM from rpm-4.0.3 does a numeric comparison of the
version, but the versions being compared are strings.  This results in undefined
behavoir.

Here's a patch.

This was fixed in rpm-4.1, now fixed in rpm-4.0.4-0.20 as well.
Thanks for the patch.
