right.

Also, one point we need to still keep in mind is that *all* of these 
packages have already seen light+life on FedoraCore{something}, and 
there isnt any testing-repo there, so its pretty much anyone using the 
pkg, and doing his/her yum updates regularly, like every good child 
should, has been eaten/bitten/suckered by most of the bugs. { or do I 
live in false hope ? }
