Devrim,

I've just realised that you *have* made a change to the 7.3.8 RPMs for
Fedore Core 1...you've updated the readme.

Referring to the readme...My problem was the RPMs didn't install, not
that I couldn't get them to run.

AFAICS the 7.3.8 RPMs for FC1 are just not operable.

Any change in sight? (This setup is not for *me*....)
