 hmm, just being under FC 1.0 (Yarrow)

   rpm -qpl xotcl-1.2.0-0.i386.rpm

 returns the content of the rpm-archive. Can it be that your download of the rpm binary
 was incomplete?

 as others pointed out, when you want to compile the src rpm file of xotcl,
 you should install the appropriate tcl src rpm file on your machine,
 then it should work. This is at least the way, i built the xotcl binary
 on our system.
