Manu,
Try using the RPM from wtower.pinky.org, either the
AfterStep-1.4.5.55N6-1.src.rpm or the AfterStep-1.5pre3-1.src.rpm if you
are adventurous =). Then you need to recompile the src RPM's you can't use
the binary ones as they are for RH 5.1, just rpm --rebuild <RPM> and then
install the RPM from /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/ (I think thats the right
path, I'm not on my box right now to check).
