What do I need to do to install this package I'm sure you understand that unless you got this from Novell, it won't be supported. Having said that, I recommend getting your hands on the source RPM (.src.rpm) for the current version shipped by Novell, and install that. Then, look at the .spec file in /usr/src/packages/SPECS to see how it was done for that version. Copy the .spec file and modify to work with the source you just downloaded and do an rpmbuild against it. What is in this version of s390-tools that you absolutely can't wait for?

Re: question on s390-tools
You are correct Mark. I did do to developerWorks and downloaded the tgz file. There is nothing urgent needed, just thought I would load the tools to a development machine and play. I will remove the old and follow your directions. Thanks Mark, again you've saved my bacon.
