OK, I had tried that too, didn't see anything particularly
illuminating, but maybe you can - the output is below.
BTW, how can I extract the files from the .rpm file manually, so I
can take a look at what it's looking for, etc? I don't see an rpm
command to do that, and midnight commander's rpm "virtual filesystem"
doesn't seem to 'see' those kinds of things.
One other thing: kpackage from wkstn 3.1 seems to reliably crash if I
open an rpm file and then try clicking on it in the left-hand
"PACKAGES" window after it's been opened. (therefore the right-hand
panel is always empty)
Thx,
Phil
