If you are looking for rpm.org / 4.4.2.x, you're on the wrong list...
You want http://wiki.rpm.org/Communicate <rpm-maint@lists.rpm.org>

> What about compatibility with rpm version 4.4.x?

Some compatibility with rpm5.org 4.4.x (such as 4.4.2 or 4.4.9) exists,
but nothing guaranteed with rpm.org 4.4.2.y (such as 4.4.2.2 or 4.4.2.3)
