Summary: Cann't build libdv rpm under FC4 with fresh install

Initial Comment:
I looked through the open bug reports on libdv's
SourceForge and did not see any mention of the
following problem I encountered when attempting to
build the libdv rpm.

After downloading from CVS the current libdv source I ran
   $ ./configure
   $ make
   $ make distribution
with no problem.
Attempting to build rpm with
   # make rpm
returned the following error:
   .
   .
   .
   rpmbuild -ta libdv-0.104.tar.gz
   error: Legacy syntax is unsupported: copyright
   error: line 7: Unknown tag: CopyRight: GPL
   make: *** [rpm] Error 1
   #
Changing the libdv.spec file's
   CopyRight: GPL
line to
   License: GPL
corrected the problem.
I run Fedora Core 4 on a AMD64 machine which currently
has rpmbuild Version 4.4.1. I do not know when (what
version) of rpmbuild stopped supporting legacy syntax
(i.e. CopyRight flag) and began requiring the License
flag but this is probably going to become an issue as
users/developers begin using newer versions of rpm.
