    An update that has three recommended fixes can now be installed.

    Description:


    This update for rpm provides the following fixes:

    - Fix find-lang.sh to handle special case of .qm file paths correctly.
    (bsc#1027925)
    - Add %sle_version macro to suse_macros. (bsc#1003714)
    - Added a %rpm_vercmp macro which accepts two versions as parameters and
    returns -1, 0, 1 if the first version is less than, equal or greater
    than the second version respectively.
    - Added a %pkg_version macro that accepts a package or capability name as
    argument and returns the version number of the installed package. If no
    package provides the argument, it returns the string "~~~".
    - Added a %pkg_vcmp macro that accepts 3 parameters. The first parameter
    is a package name
    or provided capability name, the second argument is an operator ( >= > != ) and the third parameter is a version string to be compared to
    the installed version of the first argument.
    - Added a %pkg_version_cmp macro which accepts a package or capability
    name as first argument and a version number as second argument and
    returns -1, 0, 1 or "~~~". The number values have the same meaning as in
    %rpm_vercmp and the "~~~" string is returned if the package
    or capability can't be found. (bsc#1069934)
