Hmm. Sorry for the error. I'm still living under some kind of black cloud that probably struck on that issue. There are a lot of things are still breaking here. My printer suddenly stopped working again! Thanks to a tip from Alan Brown on how to force rpm to erase a package with dependencies, I fixed it. Worse than that my *very* faithful spam filter has just gone belly up -- probably because I no longer have a fully loaded FC4 machine on which to build it ... I'm not really too thrilled about finding, installing, and learning how to use another spam filter. Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
