That could be half-automatic if they actually learned to package
correctly:

[angenenr@shutdown ~]$rpm -qR VMware-server
/bin/sh  
[angenenr@shutdown ~]$

Even better:

[root@shutdown vmware]# rpm -Uvh VMware-server-console-1.0.2-39867.i386.rpm 
error: Failed dependencies:
        sh <>= is needed by Mware-server-console-.0.2-9867.386
[root@shutdown vmware]# rpm -Uvh VMware-server-console-1.0.2-39867.i386.rpm --nodeps
