And they worked in the first place? ;-)

RPMs etc. wouldn't be too bad, if RedHat did something vaguely
approaching regular updates and builds of their rpms (which a lot
of people will rely upon for keeping dependancies in track, and for
up2date and stuff).

[eg search for mozilla on http://www.redhat.com/apps/download/ ]

<and yes whichever sarky f*** says ye can use rpmfind.net; then get
yourself stuck into the wonderful circle of dependency madness>

Package _mis_management more like.
