Recently I noticed this nice site: http://www.mirrorservice.org/ They let you "peek" inside the content of RPMs (for example, info, source-files dependencies, spec-files, patches). See for example: http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/SRPMS/ (the right-hand icons get you to the details) http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/SRPMS/kernel-2.6.9-1.667.src.rpm[peek] greetings, Rob van Nieuwkerk
