Thanks for the guidance John. This is not meant to be a repository - just a temporary place to upload some rpms I build. My main development machine is still down, so I'm just testing a few things out ATM on my laptop, which is where I built the Centos 5.5 qps binary rpm. You only have to point rpm or yum (or use wget) to download and then install the qps rpm locally. I'm with you on the later versions of Fedora packages not working on Centos 5.5 Running Centos 5.5 is very similar IMO to running Fedora 8.
