I do that and it seems to install. But afterwards, if I do "rpm -q make" it says make is not installed. Also if I do "rpm --rebuild" on a qmail rpm I have it executes fine until it gets to make and says "make:command not found". This is driving me nuts, I feel so worthless not being able to install this rpm!! I even went into kpackage and searched for make and it did not find it. ahhhhhh!! - Joel ----- Original Message ----- From: D.

I assume that installing the RPM is not the final step as make does not work after I install it. Do I have to do something to the tar?
