When I tried to install the compiled rpm from the original spec file, the
error was missing packages lsb-base and util-linux. I figured out that in
Fedora the equivalent packages are redhat-lsb and util-linux-ng. This is
exactly what the patch does.

I&#39;m not sure what dependency error it could be. Can you paste the error=
 you<br>
saw ?<br>
<br>
The patch you&#39;ve sent will make it specific to Red Hat. I wanted to hav=
e it be<br>
generic so that it can used with other RPM based distros also.<br>
