Hi, Sean!

I have problems with your src.rpms on my RedHat 6.2.

expat.src.rpm doesnt produce required expat-devel and thus I can't satisfy
that dependency. Also it would be nice if rpms were universal accross
RedHat 5.x-7.x. I just do not know where to find right expat rpms.
I know, lacking expat-devel is RedHat's fault.

Same problem with db1.

Do you have plans making at least RH 6.x compatible src RPMs?
(see "compiling Python 2.1.1" thread in c.l.p. several days ago)

Thank you!
