[Koha] ANNOUNCE: Koha perl dependency RPMs for Red Hat 9

[Al Banks]

Just an FYI for everyone...

to find the packagename if you're not sure, you can do:

rpm -qa | grep -i <what you think it may be>

rpm -qa will give the list of all packages, piped to grep (the -i
ignores case) to search for the name.  

In RedHat at least, you don't need an RPM for a package to uninstall it.

Later,
-Al
