Frank -

I got it (by mistake) from a repo I forgot to disable after using. 
(http://math.ifi.unizh.ch/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.gemi). I had 
gotten some ruby stuff from there.

I uninstalled my problem version of dosemu & will go with the current 
stable version from the dosemu.org site.

Thanks for the advice.
