I always assumed that rpm's are more for stable releases. The problem is that there
is at least one new version every week. Sometimes more. So creating the rpm's
should not be too difficult.

What does it involve to create an 'rpm'? I need to be able to do it on Solaris as
that's the machine I'm using for distributing CS.
