OK, I am installing make or at least trying to. I got the RPM that has =
the following file details:

make-3.78.1-race.patch
make-3.78.1.tar.gz
make.spec

how do I install it after running the RPM? Where is the tarball going. =
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? Thanks =
for bearing with my newbieness.
