great. howdy, all! :)

right. i just thought it was more elegant to edit the file then run
"rpm2html" instead of having to specify it, but it's no big deal since
rpm2html gives a usage message when it doesn't find the default config
file. (or are you saying it does that even when it *does* find it,
i.e. that it doesn't look for it?)
 
    jeff> secondly, i get the warning "bad option 'cpiobin' at

    Daniel> Humm, that's the librpm which send the warning. Strange

no, they're both 2.2.7. but like i say, it doesn't seem to bother
anything.

ok.
