Since Fedora itself distributes it, we can rely on the srpms that are
part of the Everything tree.  We treat it all as a single unit of
distribution, and retire it as a single unit of distribution.

I realize that it is cumbersome at the moment to discover/gather the
srpms for a Live spin.  Unfortunately I don't have the time right now to
implement source gathering in livecd-creator.  I hope to look at it
after Fedora 10 goes out the door and I actually have some development
time at my disposal (unless somebody beats me to it).
