The file you download from Compaq contains the files cpml_ev5-5.1.0-2.alpha.rpm jdk-1.3.1-beta-linux-alpha.rpm libots-2.2.7-2.alpha.rpm I've debbed them all. In a mail, Per Wigren told me that due to a bug in aliens rpm2cpio, the relevant .so file is of size 0. He recommended me to run rpm "raw", but the idiotic program won't accept "--force" to ignore things like "/bin/sh" missing. At least that's what I found out in a cursory check. More tomorrow. /g., serendipitous bricktexter. -- Gustaf Erikson -+- +46 70 444 0726 -+- [http://stureby.net/] "Send lawyers, guns, and money..."
