  Okay, looks like all I needed to do was as you guys were saying...just 
install it with --nodeps. It worked, and is working right now.
  So this will always be the same way with any src.rpm that makes an .rpm 
after --rebuild? 
  Anyway, thanks to everyone for the tips/pointers/nudges/help .

is all, but it's still a really nice app.

I needed fresh bugs for my SuSE gecko,
and Linux penguin. So I went out and
caught this huge ugly blue and red 
and green and yellow butterfly. 
They won't need fresh food for 3 months now.
