How dare RH charge for providing a service.  I agree with you!  It should all 
be free from those thieving mungrels, they can go on and make all their 
services free and file for chapter 11 protection when they run out of cash.  
A much better senario for GNU/Linux don't you think?

OTOH you could always download the file and use rpm -uvh or choose one of the 
many other _free_ tools that will handle dependencies for you.
