Thanks for the datapoint.  Is there any obvious doc on how to install
an RPM on a BSD box?  When I just run rpm -i foo.rpm, it complains:

error: cannot open //var/local/lib/rpm/packages.rpm

I don't see anything in the rpm(1) man page that says to ignore this
file or use a different one.  And there's the rpm2pkg thing which the
suse_linux packages use, but there's no doc for it that I can find.
