Certainly easier than my script, and probably a lot quicker as well.
I've saved that for future reference.

Possibly. I didn't look to see what was available, just going with what
I remembered.

I hadn't actually noticed that but, looking at the packages on my
system, it's true. I have a total of six i386 packages that say the
distribution is 10.2. Since I have the source RPMs, I'll have a look and
see if it's a hard-coded value in the spec file, or some build mistake.

I'm not too keen on adding attachments to mailing lists, especially
since it is known for them to be removed. One thing I didn't do was to
wrap the script with <snippet> </snippet> marks.

What I should have done isn't make the long lines so they didn't wrap,
but to split them up to make the script easier to read.
