Dan,
A new list of requirements for the FOSSology RPM. Just for reference,
this is a Redhat 5.4 installation.
I am going to check with my Unix team to see if they come with Redhat)
Also, some of these dependencies are interesting as they are already
installed

You'll hear no arguments from me on that one. Yum should automatically
resolve these on RHEL5/CentOS5 and beyond, so the kind of troubles George
is having will gradually go away.

P.S. According to http://www.redhat.com/security/updates/errata/ RHEL4
will be completely end-of-life on February 29, 2012. Perhaps we should
