hmm...  /sipb-nfs/redhat/4.2/i386/Redhat/sets/Athena is definitely empty,
but I'm not sure what should be in there.  Possibly some symlinks to
../../RPMS?  Or is the doc wrong?

I notice that the 5.1 directory doesn't have a "sets" directory; did Redhat
change the directory structure?

--pat

Hi Patrick,

I tried the following:

Unfortunately, this doesn't work, as the directory is empty.  Do you
know what happened to the RPM files?
