[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Fail to check signature (#270)

[Jeff Johnson]

The often stated public policy here with RPM4 is "Compatibility with RPM5 is a negative goal."
Don't hold your breath for a patch: I will generate and distribute a patch as soon as I understand
the full consequences of recent changes to the RPM format. 

Yes, Yocto issues are well known. The rpm5+dnf incompatibilities were grossly exaggerated.
*shrug* whatever.

FYI: I maintain RPM5, and have several (like almost 10 ;-) years of experience dealing with Poky/Yocto packaging issues.

Meanwhile I suspect that capsule is only the first, not the last, RPM5 package that you will see. Ripping out the "exact_size" test will solve the issue until there is more info or a better fix available.
