little problem with *building* RPMs




Dudes, I'm about to put out a new set of DocBook RPMs (finally!), and
I am running in to a little problem and a worry.

The laptop I am using for my 3 months in Europe is running RedHat 5,
and I am building the RPMs on that machine.

The *problem* is that when I go install the RPMs on a RedHat 4.2
machine, I get messages like:

failed dependencies:
        /bin/sh is needed by stylesheets-0.2-0
        /bin/sh   is needed by stylesheets-0.2-0

Has anyone seen this?  Is there a way of *building* the packages that
will work around it?  I don't think users should have to use the
--nodeps option.

The *worry* is that RedHat 4.x users will run in to binary
compatibility problems because of glibc versus old-linux-libc.

Any advice?
