Ugh. You really think so? If there were some sort of meta-RPM that you
could install to get all that stuff, I'd agree. Something like this:
rpm -Uvh all-dev-tools.rpm
Really, though... This guy is still trying to figure out how to install
a single piece of software and you're suggesting he install a bunch of
other dev stuff? One step at a time, I'd suggest.
