I realise I could do that (and probably will do now!). I take it that
SOURCE1 is the hobble.openssl file? I've been building rpms from source for
quite a while now. When you have numerous RedHat boxes to administer,
building RPMS on one to install on the others makes perfect sense. However,
like I said it would help if the packages were made available. If not, does
RedHat have any objections to me making them available?
