Subject: abiword redhat 7.0 RPM problem

In case you're not on abiword-user, several of us have been trying
to install 0.7.12 on redhat linux 7.0, and running into font issues.
The problem turns out to be the lack of postinstall/postuninstall
scripts in the abiword RPM. The RPM packaged by redhat contains
something like:
%post
/usr/sbin/chkfontpath -q -a /usr/share/abisuite/fonts
%postun
if [ "$1" = "0" ]; then
/usr/sbin/chkfontpath -q -r /usr/share/abisuite/fonts
fi
If others agree, I'd like us to add this to our package. (There's
a patch below.)
By the way, the redhat source RPM for 0.7.10 has all kinds of
interesting stuff in it. For one thing, their spec file is very
different from ours. Also, they have two patches, one of which
is for IA64. We might want to fold some of this stuff in...
