Yeah, thanks. I needed a serious break. It was good that I did, too. I have 
been able to get a lot of my priorities arranged correctly and things are 
generally doing well.

Off and on I've been doing some work on a personal project: essentially a 
distro based loosely on LFS/DIY/CLFS using rpm as a package manager (although, 
there's been nothing distributed yet). I say loosely because it's really just 
the initial build environment that is bootstrapped, and my scripts for doing 
that don't quite match any of the above. The focus is to provide a solid, 
minimal system for use as an application server. There's no deadlines with it, 
so I take my time. I was surprised at how useful rpm actually is at solidifying 
the final build, and at forcing you to think about where all the files are 
going. Anyway, that's how I came across this particular issue.

Yeah, sorry. Intended only as a reference for what was needed to reproduce the 
error.
