Updated rpm packages fix several bugs

Publication date: 29 Apr 2016
Modification date: 29 Apr 2016
Type: bugfix
Affected Mageia releases : 5

Description

This update fixes two bugs in rpm:
* Fix sigsegv in stringFormat() (rhbz#1316903)
* Fix reading rpmtd behind its size in formatValue() (rhbz#1316896)

In addition, fixes to the %autosetup and %autopatch macros were backported 
from Cauldron to solve the following issues:
* %autopatch would not throw an error in the event a patch did not exist
* %autosetup would not always correctly process sources and patches
* %autopatch was not respecting the patch fuzz settings
