The upstream package and the mandrake package have been unmaintained for 2 years now. So apparently nobody cares about it. But it seems that it requires perl-DB_File, which wasn't caught be the rpm scripts. It works now, sort of. It also needs iSiloX to convert html to pdb, but that has a too restricted license to include it: http://www.isilox.com/download/iSiloXC386.htm It's only available as binary, and not allowed to modify it. So it can only download something as html, and that makes the software a lot less interesting.
