Personnay i use apt the debian tool to manage the package you can download it to :
http://apt.freshrpms.net/

it is very easy to use :
for examples if you want to install gpm you type :

apt-get install gpm

it would download and install gpm and all the dependancies it needs

at the first use  :

apt-get update

...and then

aptget-upgrade

apt will update first the source list of the archine and then upgrade th rpm which are 
not up2date

good luck

does anyone know if there is a tool that I can install in Red Hat 9 that
when I'm installing something that it will go and grab the files it
needs??  Something that makes Linux work like FreeBSDs' package system?

I'm trying to install Ethereal and it refuses to install because it
needs me to install other things first.  Normally this isn't such a
problem however, it wants libcrypto.so.0.9.6.1, and when I Google for
it, I get openssl.  I installed openssl-0.9.7b and Ethereal still says
that it's not installed.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance!!

Scott
