Not the spec file alone. The source RPMs are at http://www.hjp.at/apt/redhat/SRPMS.qpsmtpd/ > Is it on the wiki? If not, you might put it > somewhere appropriate. I don't think putting the spec file alone on a web site is that useful, as it needs all the patches, too. Basically everything in the source RPM. So I put the source RPMs on my web page (there's a link on http://wiki.qpsmtpd.org/install:rpm-install_howto). > 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). I find your definition of proprietary very strange, but a few seconds of googling brought me to http://www.rpm.org/max-rpm/s1-rpm-file-format-rpm-file-format.html (Don't know if this is still up to date). hp -- _ | Peter J.
