OK, been searching the web and still cannot find a good copy, even on
RedHat. What I'm looking for is the libjpeg6a-6a-8.src.rpm, size of
543973, that came with RedHat 5.0. A package we're examining requires
that exact version since its release is a diff of the various files and
setup is a series of patch instructions against that release.
That version went to 6b with RH 5.1, so what I'm looking for is quite
ancient. If anyone is a packrat and still has RedHat 5.0 disks, let me
know. What I want off them is the source RPM itself. The RPM on the
RedHat site is corrupted and will not install, thus this request.
...Thanks,
...Ken
P.S. - There is a cautionary tale here - diff as a release mechanism is
bad news a few months/years after the release.
