[ale] openssl related software question

[James P. Kinney III]

mkdir /tmp/updates
for i in `ls -1 *.src.rpm`
do
rpm --rebuild $i |grep "wrote:" >> update_list
done
for i in `cat update_list`
do
sed $i s/wrote: //
cp $i /tmp/updates
done
cd /tmp/updates
rpm -Fvh *.rpm

Think of it as RPMAUTOSLACK! :) And I get a spiffy database of
dependencies to play with when I'm bored.

And yes, the sed line is probably wrong. 

BTW, Slackware8.1 is pretty slick. I always get the newest slackware on
CD just so I can get the live CD. KDE running from a CD-mounted system!
