OK. So I'm not someone who can give up that easily... and I'd really not like to have be stuck on 7.1.1 for the life of this machine.
Before going out of business, the Ripserver company made available a script that could be run to upgrade SqueezeCenter to 7.2. This script downloads an RPM from the Ripserver website that has the same name as the official release, squeezecenter-7.2-1.noarch.rpm, but it has a different file size, 26,877,271 bytes compared to 26,877,863 bytes for the official download. So presumably they have modified the rpm in some way for the Ripserver setup and then repackaged it. My question then is, is an RPM file something like a zip file or does it have a macro programming language or something like that, and is there some standard program I could use to view the components and/or commands in the file? If so, I could examine these two RPM files to see if the modifications are such that they can easily be adapted to later SqueezeCenter releases. (I apologize if that makes this post a bit off-topic, but appreciate any help in learning...)
