If a "system administrator" can't figure out how to reconfigure yum to
use Legacy depots for picking up security fixes... etc., etc....?  It's
not about encouraging ignorance, it was simply a chance to provide some
QA through an existing, automated channel.  After all, mock will have to
provide new configuration information in the FC5 distro, so why not?
(Well, okay, "will have to" is more like "probably should.")  One person
making the changes as opposed to thousands seems like a no-brainer to
me.  *shrug*
