+RPM intentionally removed RPMTAG_HDRID tag alias in commit
+79ba4a3c41702e46edd5a4ce7e17a1f3361eb0e7 ("Drop irrepairable pkgid and
+hdrid tag aliases, rename SOURCEPKGID to go").
+
+This patch fixes building against RPMv6 by using RPMTAG_SHA1HEADER
+which RPMTAG_HDRID was aliased to. RPMTAG_SHA1HEADER has existed in
+RPM since the year 2001. RPMTAG_HDRID was an alias to
+RPMTAG_SHA1HEADER all the time RPMTAG_HDRID existed.
+
+In the features we should look for another digest header RPMv6
+packages will use.

[PATCH v2 2/2] rpm: 4.20.1 -> 6.0.1

[liezhi.yang]

From: Robert Yang <liezhi.yang@windriver.com>

* Add a tag to SRC_URI so that there will be errors when only change the
  filename during upgrade it, as suggested by Alexander.

* Rebase the following patch:
  - 0001-Add-a-color-setting-for-mips64_n32-binaries.patch
  - 0001-Do-not-add-an-unsatisfiable-dependency-when-building.patch
  - 0001-Do-not-read-config-files-from-HOME.patch
  - 0001-Do-not-reset-the-PATH-environment-variable-before-ru.patch
  - 0001-When-cross-installing-execute-package-scriptlets-wit.patch
  - 0001-build-pack.c-do-not-insert-payloadflags-into-.rpm-me.patch
  - 0001-lib-transaction.c-fix-file-conflicts-for-MIPS64-N32.patch
  - 0002-Add-support-for-prefixing-etc-from-RPM_ETCCONFIGDIR-.patch
  - 0002-rpmio-rpmglob.c-avoid-using-GLOB_BRACE-if-undefined-.patch
  - 0016-rpmscript.c-change-logging-level-around-scriptlets-t.patch

* Remove backported patch 0001-CMakeLists.txt-Fix-checking-for-CFLAGS.patch

* Add the following 3 patches:
  - 0001-tools-elfdeps.cc-Remove-format-module.patch
    There is no format until gcc 13.1, so remove the format module to make it
    work on hosts such as Ubuntu 22.04.

  - 0001-macros.in-Set-_rpmformat-to-4.patch
    Fixed:
    error: External dependency generator is incompatible with v6 packages

  - 0001-macros.in-Set-_pkgverify_level-to-digest-as-RCPM-4.2.patch
    Fixed:
    GPG check FAILED

* Add scdoc-native to DEPENDS to fix do_configure error for both native and
  target:
  Could not find SCDOC using the following names: scdoc

  Note, both target and native need scdoc-native.

* Add bash to RDEPENDS:${PN} to fix:
  ERROR: rpm-1_6.0.1-r0 do_package_qa: QA Issue: /usr/lib/rpm/rpm-setup-autosign
  contained in package rpm requires /bin/bash, but no providers found in
  RDEPENDS:rpm? [file-rdeps]

* Test info:
  PACKAGE_CLASSES = "package_rpm"
  $ bitbake core-image-sato world

This one is creating technical debt. I can imagine support for v4
packages will be dropped at some not-too-distant point. We've had this
deprecation warning for a long time, but it looks like the matter is
becoming more pressing now. Can you look into it?

Is this a hard dependency? Is there a cmake switch to turn it off?

All things that depend on bash are specifically placed into
${PN}-build, so that the main package will not pull in gplv3 licensed
items. I can imagine this will fail in no-gpl3 tests too.

Addition of LIBELF_FOUND=False is not explained. Also I think it can
be easily provided?

Otherwise, looks good, thanks for working on it!

OK, I will look into it.

I will check and fix that.

I will move it into rpm-build.

Good catch, we don't need this change, it has been fixed via 
0001-tools-elfdeps.cc-Remove-format-module.patch

I checked the history, the external dependency is for rpm per file dependency,
but that function hasn't been used any more since 2012:

===========
commit be40f6d0bb80274366af00461112af65687a4de8
Author: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
Date:   Thu Feb 9 09:51:10 2012 +0000

     package_rpm.bbclass: Optimise per file dependency handling

===========

And back to 2010:
===========
commit 84f7f70308eed0ac96abeb5a762e9b7765e5db91
Author: Mark Hatle <mark.hatle@windriver.com>
Date:   Mon Aug 30 16:44:31 2010 -0500

     package_rpm: Enable per file dependencies
===========

The per file dependency was for creating the rpm, but Richard disabled that
in 2012, and there were no complains or updates in the past 13 years.

I think we can remove that code safely, then we can move to rpm 6.

I will send a V3 for it if no objections.

Yes, it's a hard dependency since the man pages in *man/* are scdoc sources.
