Re: %include syntax and usage

[Robert Denton <robert headsprout com>]

Jesse, that's interesting approach.  I have actually tried using wget  
but I get the error that wget is not a known command. I usually do  
not use a %pre section.  Where should I put the wget?  In the %post?   
Don't I need to declare packages before the %post section?
