That's fine. It's been a winding, tricky path to get to here. I'll 
download it from the site you mentioned.
Well, I tried something like a bromly site and it died during the 
download. I then picked the redhat site, and it downloaded 15M.  Both 
bromly and redhat release folders looked similar. About the same number 
of folders. 30? Alternatives to zlib.
