Which version of (native_ RPM is running on your system?

"HH8.0" probably means RedHat Linux 8.0 ?

Be careful; RH 8.0 comes with rpm-4.1 while the LDK build environment
has been tested only with rpm-4.0 (as used in RH-7.1, 7.2 and 7.3).

I am aware of some build problems under RH 8.0 and 9, as well  as  on
more  recent versions of SuSE etc. However, for maximum compatibility
we build on a RH-7.1 system so there was no real  need  to  fix  this
yet.

Patches welcome.

Best regards,

Just go with the flow control, roll with the crunches, and, when  you
get a prompt, type like hell.
