Fo me, I didn't have libgcc_s-4.1.2-20070723.so.1. So I had to copy
/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 and libgcc_s-4.1.2-20070723.so.1 from a diffrent F7
machine and put them on /lib/. Now rpm seem to work, but there seems
to be other issues with the rpm as yum failed to install
system-config-users due to some python dependencies.
