make rpm

Matthias,

I've been thinking about the names of our binary rpms.  At present we
have:

  bogofilter-x.y.z-1.i586.rpm - the DB4.2 shared library rpm
  bogofilter-static-x.y.z-1.i586.rpm - the DB4.2 static linked rpm

recent changes add:

  bogofilter-sqlite-x.y.z-1.i586.rpm - SQLite3 rpm

I think it would be appropriate to include database version as part of
the binary rpm name, i.e.

   bogofilter-db42...
   bogofilter-sqlite...
   bogofilter-db42-static...
   bogofilter-sqlite-static...

A question for you (and the other subscribers to the list) is whether
this is a good naming convention and whether we want/need all these
rpms?

Also, in Makefile.am there's an objdump test?  On my workstation it's
triggering the "Please run ..." message.  I've checked and my build of
sqlite-3.2.8 _does_ include symbol __ctype_b_loc.

Regards,

David
