  Hi marc,

  seems that the rpmfind binary was compiled against an incompatible version of the
RPM library. The simplest is to fetch the source RPM at:
  ftp://rpmfind.net/pub/rpmfind/rpmfind-1.2-1.src.rpm
and rebuild it using:
  rpm --rebuild rpmfind-1.2-1.src.rpm

and install the resulting rpmfind-1.2-1.ppc.rpm,

Daniel
