ok, i understand now the 'reply to bottom' thing, sorry about that one :)
anyway, i already have a package i made with alien from an rpm package someone
made for me. my program is a GUI MEncoder frontend using qt and kdelibs, the
best i've seen so far, without bragging :) more details at
http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=16439
i am looking for anyone here interested to be my package maintainer :) (or
whatever it is the next step is.. you'll sort of have to walk me through this
a bit, never actually even fully developed a prog before... :/ )
