I have confirmed that the combination of rpm-4.0.2, rpm-python-4.0, and
up2date does *not* work (at least on my system):

# up2date     
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/usr/sbin/up2date", line 9, in ?
    import rpm
ImportError: /usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/rpmmodule.so: undefined
symbol: rpmSetVerbosity


Did I miss anything?
