I've including a copy of the latest SRPM spec file for anyone
interested.

Yes, the resultant RPM file is relocatable.
During installation of the RPM, the user can use the --prefix flag to
adjust the location of the files, eg:
rpm -U --prefix /usr/local hpoj-0.7-2.rpm

Oops... I did miss those.... Probably because my PSC500 can't be used
with xojpanel, so I never noticed... <laugh>
OK, that's fixed.

The RPM now inserts these two entries into conf.modules (or modules.conf
if it exists):
alias net-pf-24 ieee12844
alias mlclink-mlcpp0 ieee12844
These entries correlates to the *ptal-printd.conf* file that comes with
the RPM. I have left out the alias for parport_lowlevel, since hpoj is
intended to be cross-platform. The user must add that entry manually,
depending on the machine architecture.
During uninstall, those exact two entries will be removed from
modules.conf.
