OK - though I can't now find it, one of the two forums to which I belong actually suggested something very similar to supply computer info prior to posting questions.
I'll be removing it. Thank you.

Re: [Solved] ipmievd failure - new!
inxi should not have pulled in impitool as a required program. It should have been a recommended optional program, since it's only relevant on the few systems out there that actually have ipmi. That's a packaging oversight, best handled by having the maintainer change ipmitool to a recommended or suggested package, or however rpm handles these things.

Yeah, well, rpm does not have a concept of "recommended or suggested package". In the rpm world, either a package is required or it is not. I think .deb packages may include such recommendations, but don't quote me on that.
