Seems I have learn't a new trick today, but you must excuse the stupidty here,
The rpmmacro I was actually looking for was the one to solve dependancies on a 
directory, it is pretty cool,
I reloaded today and lost it. I normally copy my apt archive directory to the 
server and when I preload machines I copy the macro to /root folder, the my 
script that runs does an rpm -Uvh --aid <selected packages> and rpm -ivh 
--aid <other packages> 
and this way all the packages i plonk in that directory are automatically 
installed on each new machine. 

I will still need your macro however that will be later this week.
When I learn to replace certian rpms within the distro. I am working on an oem 
for Proline computers, we will be the first major company in SA that can 
offer the relevant service and support for Linux. And we are launching a 
Christmas special with PCs Preloaded. 
My Job is to add all our logos to Fedora and thats why we need to rebiuld some 
RPMS.
very exiting :->

Later
