See the previous message. I'm not entirely sure that the packages are
specifically for RH7.1, but 7.0 packages should work fine.

With the exception of the guppi and g-wrap packages, all these were
easily found on www.rpmfind.com, and the average redhat user *should* be
aware of and use rpmfind.

Every single one of these packages comes from the gnome 1.4 install. It
may not be standard in RH7.1 (I wouldn't know, I haven't upgraded yet),
but it will definitely be in the next RH version. (If you don't have a
CD with Gnome 1.4 on it, can I recommend you take a look at
www.ximian.org, download red-carpet, subscribe to the "Ximian Gnome"
channel, and get it to do the install). I'm also not promising that I
picked up all the dependencies - they will depend on what you currently
have installed.

Also, if you plan to compile your own executable from source, you will
need the following packages:
ftp://ftp.rpmfind.net/linux/helix/ximian-gnome/redhat-71-i386/bonobo-devel-1.0.0-ximian.1.i386.rpm
ftp://ftp.rpmfind.net/linux/helix/ximian-gnome/redhat-71-i386/gal-0.7-ximian.2.i386.rpm
ftp://ftp.rpmfind.net/linux/helix/ximian-gnome/redhat-71-i386/gal-devel-0.7-ximian.2.i386.rpm
ftp://ftp.rpmfind.net/linux/helix/ximian-gnome/redhat-71-i386/gtkhtml-devel-0.9.2-ximian.2.i386.rpm
ftp://ftp.rpmfind.net/linux/helix/ximian-gnome/redhat-71-i386/oaf-devel-0.6.5-ximian.3.i386.rpm
