I have built LFS-7.3 and the current LFS-SVN for i686 using rpm. x86_64 
also worked for version 7.3.

To build rpm and build rpm into the tool chain you will need the 
following as dependencies:
zlib berkeley-db nspr nss popt readline elfutils rpm.

In  chapter 6 you will need: db elfutils nspr nss popt rpm as dependencies.

lua is not needed and I have droped it from my builds.

I have all the spec files for chapter 6 and it is available at 
github.com/baho-utot/LFS-RPM <https://github.com/baho-utot/LFS-RPM>.

I have a whole complete build system that builds rpm into chapter 5 
toolchain and then builds chapter 6 using the rpm installed from the 
tool chain.
To keep elfutils from trashing the toolchain you will need to configure 
it like the following:

./configure --prefix=/tools --program-prefix="eu-" --with-bzlib=no 
--disable-werror in the build in chapter5
and :
./configure  CFLAGS="%{optflags} -g" CXXFLAGS="%{optflags} -g " \
     --prefix=/usr \
     --bindir=/usr/bin \
     --libdir=/usr/lib \
     --disable-werror \
     --program-prefix="eu-" || {
     cat config.log
     exit 2
     }

In the spec file chapter 6
