You may try to do like this: ----- # cd $LINUX_BASE # rpm2cpio -q < $directory_with_rpm_package/$rpm_package | cpio -id ----- Then find any new binary executable files and brandelf(1) them (only executables, not libraries). Well, a better way may be to create a port. You'll get at least a clean deinstall possibility then. And use send-pr(1). ;-) WBR -- Boris Samorodov (bsam) Research Engineer, http://www.ipt.ru Telephone & Internet SP FreeBSD committer, http://www.FreeBSD.org The Power To Serve
