Subject: rpm: Bogus requirement generated for linux-gate.so
Date: Thu, 10 Nov 2005 14:42:02 -0500 (EST)

Package: rpm
Severity: normal

When creating an rpm ("rpmbuild -bb"), if running on a 2.6 kernel the
rpm can get a bogus dependency on linux-gate.so.  See:

http://lists.suse.com/archive/suse-linux-e/2005-May/2094.html 
http://www.trilithium.com/johan/2005/08/linux-gate/ 

I'm including a small patch to /usr/lib/rpm/find-requires which seems
to fix the problem.
