This commit message is confusing. I think we need to be clear about the
following:

Is this file dependency information written into the existing rpms with
rpm 5?

After the changes, do we still have the file dependency information or
is this being removed?

I think you're saying there were no external users after 2012 but I'm
not even 100% sure about that.

Cheers,

Richard
