binary rpm package checking

This is a start to check binary rpm packages for consistency. Right now mostly the rpm header is checked to get a feeling how much "strange" binary rpm packages might be out there. It has two modes of checking, one for the current Fedora Development tree with more strict checks and a more relaxed one that should work for all existing rpm packages, also other distributions. I'd be interested to get feedback on what output is generated for rpm addon expositories and non - Red Hat distributions if the script generates warning messages. At least for Fedora Core only very few rpm tags are actually used in the rpm header. Examples usage: ./pyrpm.py --strict /mirror/fedora/development/i386/Fedora/RPMS/*.rpm Checking all rpms: locate .rpm | xargs ./pyrpm.py find /mirror/linux -name "*.rpm" -type f -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0 ./pyrpm.py greetings, Florian La Roche
