Fixed now in rawhide rpm and an update for F15 is here:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/rpm-4.9.0-9.fc15

Please help testing to get this nasty regression fixed ASAP.

ALL packages containing scripts which have been built while file-5.07 
has been in rawhide (since May 11th) & F15 (in updates-testing since May 
23rd) are affected and will have missing dependencies because of this, 
requiring rebuilds to correct the situation.

Thanks Josh for reporting this, and also apologies for missing your 
initial mail on the subject, reacting then would've saved a week's worth 
of broken builds :-/
