Just been trying to build the Linaro toolchain from source on RHEL 6.5. The ABE configure script fails to detect the packaging system on RHEL as it looks like RPM will only be detected if it's running on a Fedora system. This patch will instead detect RPM if the rpm binary is available (and it's not Debian/Ubuntu), like the test for Arch/pacman.

Thanks Scott!
I've uploaded a fixed version of your patch to https://review.linaro.org/14757. One needs to modify configure.ac and then re-generate configure by running autoconf.
Once the patch is approved it will be merged into abe.
