+Subject: [PATCH] Do not install the script interpreter dependency generator
+
+RPM 4 generated dependencies with the external __find_requires /
+__find_provides generator, which OE disabled entirely via
+_use_internal_dependency_generator 0. RPM 6 removed that mechanism; for
+v6-format packages only the internal fileattr generators run.
+
+rpm's script.attr generator therefore runs for the first time in OE
+builds. For every packaged executable whose first line is a #! shebang
+it adds an interpreter dependency, e.g. a kernel-devsrc package shipping
+scripts/mksysmap (#!/bin/sed -f) gains:
+
+  Requires: /bin/sed
+
+OpenEmbedded manages build and runtime dependencies explicitly via
+DEPENDS/RDEPENDS and does not want these. They break real use cases:
+
+- The literal interpreter path is taken verbatim from the shebang, so a
+  #!/bin/sed script requires /bin/sed while the only provider (busybox)
+  offers /usr/bin/sed under usrmerge. The paths never match and the
+  package is uninstallable.
+- In the SDK the sole interpreter providers (busybox, coreutils, bash,
+  perl) are deliberately banned by target-sdk-provides-dummy, so these
+  auto-generated requires make -dev/-src packages uninstallable during
+  do_populate_sdk ("nothing provides /bin/sed").
+- The requires are non-reproducible: they are only emitted when the
+  interpreter happens to be scanned from the shebang in the build
+  sysroot, so the same recipe can produce different packages.
+
+This is the same class of problem fixed for pkgconfig.attr; see
+"rpm: disable the RPM 6 pkgconfig dependency generator".
+
+Suppressing the generator from the rpmbuild command line is not
+reliable: rpm reloads the fileattr macros during dependency generation
+and clobbers any --define. Remove script.attr and its helper script.req
+from rpm's install lists via a source patch. This changes
+do_unpack/do_patch, so the whole rpm recipe and everything downstream
+re-hash and no stale rpm-native is reused.
+
+Upstream-Status: Inappropriate [OE policy: dependencies are managed by the build system, not generated by rpmbuild]
