Sorry. I know about RPMs (I do use RedHat when necessary). I meant a URL to the .spec file. Is it on the wiki? If not, you might put it somewhere appropriate. One reason I don't use RedHat is that .rpm is a propriatary format, in the sense that you can't do anything without an rpm executable and documentation for the format is hard to find (if it exists outside the rpm source code). Debian uses 'ar' format for .deb files and they unpack into one text file and two .tar.gz files. -- --gh
