The latest "rpm" package in Fedora 34, rpm-4.16.1.3-1.fc34: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1726304 built on 22 Mar 2021, does not (cannot) have the fix. The upstream rpm fix is: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/commit/ea2754b4f14e0a195f4633adfcaa59d0167ee676 which is between tags "rpm-4.17.0-alpha" and "rpm-4.17.0-beta1", and has commit date 2021-06-11. The fix has been backported to RHEL-9 (1965147): https://brewweb.engineering.redhat.com/brew/buildinfo?buildID=1824746 but not to Fedora 34. Fedora 34 is supposed to be maintained until 2022-05-17, according to Wikipedia, so this is definitely a Fedora bug. I guess I should update my workstation to Fedora 35 regardless; that should be faster. (Fedora 35 has rpm-4.17.0-1.fc35, so it should have the fix.)
