Hey Dave, here's what I have in /tftpboot/rpm:

-rw-r--r--    1 root     root       261894 Sep 29  2003
perl-XML-Parser-2.31-15.i386.rpm
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        31842 Nov 21  2003
perl-XML-Simple-1.08-1.noarch.rpm

I suspect that perl-XML-Simple was from SIS, perl-XML-Parser probably
came from the RH9 distribution CDs.

I don't think we want to depend on SIS to provide perl-XML-Simple, we
should provide it ourselves if it is not part of the distribution (so
copy that RPM from the SIS package to prereq/XML-Simple).

Just my $0.02.

Cheers,

Bernard
