[ILUG] weird rpm behavior

[Dave Burke]

And to follow up to myself....

1. It is a known bug,
   http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11151
   It just hasn't been fixed yet, well the bugzilla status is still 'New'

2. The latest version of RPM is 3.0.6, the frontpage to www.rpm.org is out
   of date.
