I found this cool code that apparently could manipulate a .jpg file on the back end after it's uploaded. But it's in an RPM and I've never dealt with any Linux based programs. Good old Wikipedia taught me a bit but not enough.
Are we able to load these in Dreamhost? and if so how? and should I be downloading a certain version of the RPM?
Thanks So Much!!!

RPM is RedHat Package Manager. DreamHost runs Debian, so that's not going to work. The good news is that you *can* install software from source code, so if you grab the source, you can probably install your particular application. Which application is it?

I don't know too much about it but it's called libjpeg. Super newbie at RPMs, i don't even know how to view it!...notepad's not working.

Dreamhost already has libjpeg.
Did you need to compile a particular version?
