Yup. Once the /lib move has been done I think it's ok to proceed with the review.

I've done a bit of testing with rpm 4.4.2.1 and didn't see any problems with the
newer popt. Some of points worth noting:
- rpm needs to loose the strict dependency on popt = <version>-<release> (will do)
- fedora-maintainers + fedora-devel-announce needs to be notified because the
amount of implicit build dependencies on popt-devel
- once this package hits rawhide, rpm needs to be modified to build against
external popt and kill of the internal version entirely (will do)
- I want co-maintainership for the new popt package, just so I know what's going
on with it due to the close marriage with rpm (not that I expect much to happen,
popt isn't that actively developed)
