I had problems briefly as well with XEmacs. However, I rebuilt the rpm
and it's working great now. Later today I'll polish up the spec from
the 'contrib'ed rpm and make it follow the new form and try to put it up
in the contrib directory.
I will also put it up on my server, at:
ftp://chaos.uark.edu/pub/linux/redhat/contrib
Check back later today and I'll try and have it up there.
If you have any problems, let me know.
