Ah, I was wrong, I was guessing that a warning made it a non-zero exit
code.  Thanks.

Currently there's a single host that's both the web server and doing the
analysis work, and it's RHEL-5, not F9:
rpmlint-0.83-1.el5
desktop-file-utils-0.10-7

It's clear that this approach isn't going to work, which I've filed as a
bug against rpmgrok here:
https://fedorahosted.org/rpmgrok/ticket/18

Looks like I need to fix that before the rpmlint side of rpmgrok would
be useful.

Thanks for looking into this
