I have been using grab for the last couple of months now, it has great
functionality and i have found it very use full, good job Greg. 

I recently installed redhat 9 on a box, and installed grab. I keep
getting the same error trying to use grab on the redhat 9 box. 

Reading in current RPM provides list
-Building dependancy tree
-All dependancies seem to be accounted for
-Grabbing the selected packages...
 (1/1)
mrtg-2.9.17-13.i386.rpm                                            843kB
-Checking the signature of the cached RPM(s)
rpmk: no arguments given
 -> ERROR:
-Some RPM(s) failed to validate
-You may wish to try re-invoking grab with the '--redownload' option
-Calling 'rpm -Uvh' for '1' package(s)
error: open of #rpm failed: No such file or directory
error: open of opts# failed: No such file or directory
-RPM had a non-zero exit code, not erasing downloaded RPMS


Does not matter if the rpm is cached locally, on a ftp server, or on a
local folder listed in /etc/grab/servers. I get that error for
everything. Even installing rpms using --rpmfind will throw that error.

I tried deleting the config file, and letting Grab recreate it, but it
still fails. 

Anyone ran into trouble using grab on redhat 9.
