Well, I appreciate the pointer, but you missed the question (I think ?), which was, can you use the sdk WITHOUT installing either the Debian or RedHat package tools? I dislike them strongly, and would skip them if there was any possible way to do that. I already have a tool called rpm2targz on my Gentoo system, you can just guess what that does, huh? Regardless, appreciate it. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (FreeBSD) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFH3yhKz62J6PPcoOkRAoaAAJ42wZ2Gm/0k+50CrOF9gRD9RA5EYACgpPSm +GqEApE1v2MlYYCyJn/SA3k= =YYLx -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
