rpm has too many ways to load configuration goop.
That mostly can't be helped, and is mired in hysterical legacy concrete.
Meanwhile, I find Yet More Ways of configuration being added under
RPM_VENDOR_OPENPKG and RPM_VENDOR_WINDRIVER. While
that's perfectly OKAY with me, it does have a hidden cost:
Its bloody impossible to write and maintain a standalone "make
check" with
all this variation.
Can we try to cook all the paths down to simpler and more predictable?
Note that I have both re-adding %{rpmhome} (to handle
rpm-4.5.90.89.88... compat)
as well as run-time configuration path discovery to somehow merge into
rpm Real Soon Now.
See lib/poptALL.c for much of the variance ...
