In addition to being a differnet version, the FC4 python RPM is built on
"decompose.build.redhat.com", not "tweety.build.redhat.com". It is
also
signed with a different key. This is not a FC4 python RPM.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 ES, not Fedora Core 4.
Actually because my command was wrong, FC4 doesn't find anything. The
command should be "rpm -q --whatprovides redhat-release". On a FC4 system
it is provided by "fedora-release-4-2".
