[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Typecheck header tags match our definitions prior to import (#242, #414) (dfd236d)

[Panu Matilainen]

If there's a tag type mismatch between the internal table and the header, you don't know whether it's the the tag or the type that is corrupted (eg due to fuzzing) and thus you can't assume the internal table is correct either. 

Handling unknown types as a binary blob is a nice idea though.
