why include external libraries?



Hi,

This question may have been asked already (if so, I couldn't find
anything in the past 4 months archives) but I am wondering why the rpm
source tree includes zlib, sqlite and popt (db3, I understand is
required since that is the internal format of the internal rpm
database).

I ask this principally as one the Debian maintainers for rpm -- where
this causes us both building and security issues.

Cheers,
Anand
