OK, I think I have a spec file which includes all "SuSE-isms" except the 
boot script itself. I moved the soft linking of the scripts from the 
install phase to the %post and %preun sections, and abstracted the man 
and rc paths to the variables %{rc_path} and %{man_path}.

Sander, does RH have /usr/share/man ? I would guess it does (as does 
Mandrake), in which case we might want to consolidate the man page 
locations over to there.

Hmm. I have that in the spec file, but have not yet looked carefully at 
the init file itself. It may be different enough that we just would want 
to have an "omniNames.SuSE" in the omniORB distro which we can reference 
in the spec file directly. Unfortunately, the omniNames boot script is 
generated during autoconf, so it may affect the build process itself.

I'm building now using the "consolidated spec file", and will let you 
know how it goes. I'm leaving town for Thanksgiving but will be back in 
a couple of days...
