I just recently built libIDL from source (libIDL
is one of the libraries required to be able to
build mozilla). Apparently, all went well; 'make
install' placed the library files exactly where
the documentation said it would put them.

We all use 'rpm -q' to check the version of
installed packages, right? Here's what's making
me a bit worried: Entering this command on the
terminal:
  $ rpm -q libIDL
invokes this message:
  package libIDL is not installed

I'm assuming that 'rpm -q' doesn't work in this
case because rpm was never involved in the build
process. But I'd like to be absolutely
sure. What do you guys think?

Thanks -- Abe
