That's what I had to resort to, but I'm a purist... I'd like to get
this working to make life more streamlined and also remove the
vulnerable versions of openssh from the Red Hat 9 rpm list. I thought I
could simply replace the vulnerable rpms of openssh with the latest rpms
and have Anaconda rock-n-roll. That didn't work...

If I could have getfullcomps.py work, I would be able to sleep at night...
