Hi Raj,
If it's worth the trouble, U could probably try extracting the
files from the RPM directly. It is possible that only the manpage or the
README file is the corrupt culprit and the binaries are OK. I think mc is
capable of doing this, (I'm not very sure here) if not there are some rpm
viewer utilities available even for windoze... Just put the binary in
/usr/bin and the libs in /usr/lib and enjoy... (U may have to do
*SOME* tweaking here before U get it to work). Just my 2 bits...
btw, I've never tried this myself, so no flames please if I'm wrong or
terribly wrong, jus' thought it might work and save the dude all the
trouble of d'loading the stuff again...
HTH ... Narain.
