No, they're not installed although they are available on SuSE 8.1:
        STLport-5.0.0409-28.i586.rpm

As far as I can tell they do.  So far, all I've done is run them with
--help options, and that works.

I need to put together proper configuration files.  We've been running
tripwire-1.30 for years (largely because I've been overwhelmed by the C++
oddities of the newer version :-).  The versions as compiled now assume
locations in /etc/tripwire, /var/lib/tripwire, etc. which I would think
should be changed to comply with the openpkg standards.

I was going to suggest that some of the installation locations be changed,
and the availabile policy/*.txt files installed.  I think that typical
older tripwire installations put the binaries under /var/adm/tcheck/bin
rather than in the normal executable PATH so it seems to me that it would
make sense to split things out into:
        %{l_prefix}/libexec/tripwire
        %{l_prefix}/etc/tripwire
        %{l_prefix}/lib/tripwire

I would probably put the policy/*.txt files in the etc directory where
they're easily available as samples.
