Wow, what great tools. And I used to think configure was a great idea.

OK so I did a source rebuild with
rpm --rebuild mol-kmods-0.9.59-1.src.rpm

and this seemed to do an install which installed modules and left
/usr/src/rpm/RPMS/ppc/mol-kmods-0.9.59-1.ppc.rpm

Similarly did
rpm --rebuild mol-0.9.59-1a.src.rpm

which did a long compilation sequence, put a bunch of stuff in
/var/tmp/mol*
had a warning (am I missing LD_LIBRARY_PATH for dynamic libs):
PreReq: rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1
Requires(rpmlib): rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1
Requires: mol-kmods ld.so.1 libc.so.6 libm.so.6 libncurses.so.5
libpthread.so.0 libX11.so.6 libXext.so.6 /bin/bash /bin/sh /usr/bin/perl
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.0) libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.1) libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.2)
libm.so.6(GLIBC_2.0) libpthread.so.0(GLIBC_2.0)
libpthread.so.0(GLIBC_2.1)

and similarly left a ppc rpm, and then cleaned (deleted) things up
/usr/src/rpm/RPMS/ppc/mol-0.9.59-1a.ppc.rpm

It didn't seem to change the dates on my /usr/lib/mol or /usr/bin/mol
files.
So I figured maybe I had to install the ppc-rpm with

rpm -Uvh /usr/src/rpm/RPMS/ppc/mol-kmods-0.9.59-1.ppc.rpm
rpm -Uvh /usr/src/rpm/RPMS/ppc/mol-0.9.59-1a.ppc.rpm

and it said they were already installed. Excuse my inexperience, but am
I done? Did I mess something up that leaves it incomplete?
