Thanks for the report!

Ironically, it's just the check that's bogus -- chg-zd-mtx will run just
fine in that situation.  Try the attached patch, which just removes the
checks.

The problem is that the RPM was built on a machine without mtx
installed, so it recorded the path to mtx as just 'mtx'.  Then
chg-zd-mtx, assuming it is given a fully qualified path, checks that the
file exists.  Because 'mtx' is an unqualified filename, the check fails.
