Hi Martin, Matthew,

> in particular, the list of rpm packages that need to be installed?


Reviewing that list I see that we are missing some other utilities
that are required.

In the instructions we list some general categories you need to select
when doing the install that we know pick up some to all of the
utilities we need.

But here is what else I thought of:


zip
unzip
tetex
tetex-dvips
psutils
gs (and associated fonts)
gcc
swig



Matthew, a fun test could be doing a complete minimal install of
Fedora, and then trying to get loncapa up and running, we could get
the prereq RPM even more complete that way.
