[TriLUG] rpm question: what are the rpmlib requirements telling me?

 rpm -q kernel-2.4.20-18.7 -R
rpmlib(VersionedDependencies) <= 3.0.3-1
fileutils
modutils >= 2.4.18
initscripts >= 5.83
mkinitrd >= 3.2.6
/bin/sh
/bin/sh
/bin/sh
/bin/sh
rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1
rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1

How would I check if I meet the list rpmlib dependencies listed in this
"Require" list for
a kernel rpm?

This is the first time I've actually looked at the dependencies for an
kernel rpm; I've installed
them in the pass without issue; but I want to be certain I have
everything correct before rebooting.

I've not had any issues with the install; I just being parnoid and trying
to learn more about rpm.

Any input appreciated.
