Author is uuencode available for EL WS 4?

I just installed EL WS 4 and can't find uuencode. I have some old scripts that
need it. Is uuencode available as an rpm, tarball, etc.? And why would RedHat
remove it, since uuencode and uudecode are in SUS 3?

Thanks,
Mike

It should be in sharutils on disk 4. The original one is 4.2.1-22, but it
may have been updated by now.
