Revision history for Perl extension RPM.

0.01  Thu May  4 12:04:34 2000
	- original version; created by h2xs 1.19

0.1   Mon May 22 00:59:54 PDT 2000
	- first alpha release

	Classes for RPM::Header and RPM::Database are (more or less) done.
	RPM::Constants appears to have everything that is expected to be
	needed (i.e., any changes should result in shortening the list of
	exported symbols, rather than lengthening it). A basic top-level
	RPM namespace is present, but doesn't yet do anything useful. Some
	basic test scripts are in place, but more are (always) needed.

0.2   Mon May 29 17:59:20 PDT 2000
	- second alpha

	Class for RPM::Error added. The code is in the RPM.xs file, but
	the docs and accessors are done in RPM/Error.pm.

	All sub-classes moved to RPM/.

	More documentation added, especially to RPM::Constants.

	RPM::Constants had about a dozen or so trimmed out.

	Found error in Database.xs where the FIRSTKEY/NEXTKEY pair would
	have returned string-ified references instead of package names,
	because of not taking the first array element. I really plan to
	change the RPM::Header::FETCH interface.

	Added two utility functions under the RPM::* space for getting O/S
	and architecture names.

	Put in the start of thread-safing the module. But this part of the
	API is still pretty black in the Lockheed Skunkworks sense of the
	word, so it isn't at all complete.

0.25	Mon Jun  5 00:54:59 PDT 2000
	- third alpha

	Fixes to the thread-safing code. When built against a 5.6.0 configured
	for threading, several problems were found. All (current) tests now
	pass on that configuration.

	Added a file, IMPORTANT.perl, to the distribution that explains the
	nature of a condition that can prevent the extension from working on
	any version of Perl not installed from an rpm.

	Still more trimming of tokens out of Constants.pm that are not of use
	by the interface being provided. Filled in a few more in terms of
	documentation.

	Found a case in RPM::Header that would cause core-dumps: Any tags found
	by the iterator that were not exported for the API by the rpm lib
	could cause a null pointer to be passed through to an entry point that
	was several lines past where I had normally checked for the null. This
	meant that source RPMs would almost certainly break, since the
	offending tags only showed up when I started testing against SRPMS.
	Now, the iterators skip over these internal tags. The normal FETCH
	method already tested for this, but the interators were sneaking past
	those tests.

	Added a method to the RPM::Header class, is_source(), that returns a
	true value (1) if the header is associated with a source RPM.
