Most systems don't need it.  It's available in the repos for those that
do.  If you don't have a network connection, you have to find it
somehow.  I've sent you the RPM as an email attachment from my home 
account that should help you out, assuming you can receive a 194K 
attachment in your yahoo account.  If not, send me private mail with
an appropriate email account and I'll try again.
