Dear all,

I am sick of having to install tar.gz packages and having to wonder every
time I had to overwrite something, whether what happened to old files. I
want to make sure that now on, whatever goes in my SuSE 8.2 system, it
goes in as a .rpm.

Suppose I have mplayer-0.90 final with me as a tar.bz2 and my 8.2 system
has an rc2 or something. I want to be able to do an rpm -Uvh for this
package. And since I want my new mplayer to be able to use libdvdread as
well as dvdcss, I want it to ask for these packages also. I feel it would
be better way of managing packages. I think that such installation shall
also nicely integrate my package back into SuSEs central db on my system.

Can you please provide me with definitive rpms? I want to build my own
.rpm packages after I have compiled the downloaded sources. This may even
be an old question, but please reply anyway.
