So, then that's an incompatibility introduced with whatever version
of RPM you've used here.

This breaks cvs-import.sh, which excepts above query to return

  (none)

for source rpms.

Temporarily you can comment out the source rpm check in cvs-import.sh
as a work-around. The script needs to be fixed. Or RPM needs to revert
the change and print "(none)" again.
