In this case, it wasn't necessary.  I could easily see it being an
issue, though.

[for tech-packages]
In case anyone's wondering, I'm up to the same point that Ragge (?)
reached where the rpms are looking the packages.rpm(?) for dependancies
on /bin/sh, libdl.so.2, etc., and coming up short.  I haven't looked
into that yet, but I think it's caused by not installing the RPMs for
suse_*, but converting them to another format for extraction.
