    Shalom Frederick,

    Why not use ports?
    Try to cd to /usr/ports/archivers/rpm and type 'make install'.
    That should do the trick. (Although the ported version of RPM is not
    of the 4.x branch).

    Could you possibly send a longer description of the problem? ("not able
    to ./configure") is not a very clear description...

    Gilad.
