Richard Purdie 45907b6d7f package_manager: Add rpm v4 support

Currently the package manager code only supports rpm v5. To be useful outside
of OE or with OE layers using v4, it makes sense to add in rpm v4 support. This
takes a patch from "Bartosh, Eduard" <eduard.bartosh@intel.com> and enhances
it to also include versions of the workarounds from poky-eurogiciel to
allow rpm v4 usage with the class for image construction.

README

Poky

Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged build system and development environment. It features support for building customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.

Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.

As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.

The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a reference manual which can be found at: http://yoctoproject.org/documentation

OpenEmbedded-Core is a layer containing the core metadata for current versions of OpenEmbedded. It is distro-less (can build a functional image with DISTRO = "nodistro") and contains only emulated machine support.

For information about OpenEmbedded, see the OpenEmbedded website: http://www.openembedded.org/

Where to Send Patches

As Poky is an integration repository, patches against the various components should be sent to their respective upstreams.

bitbake: bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org

meta-yocto: poky@yoctoproject.org

Most everything else should be sent to the OpenEmbedded Core mailing list. If in doubt, check the oe-core git repository for the content you intend to modify. Before sending, be sure the patches apply cleanly to the current oe-core git repository. openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org

Note: The scripts directory should be treated with extra care as it is a mix of oe-core and poky-specific files.
