Here is missing: Fedora Core 1 - i386 - Testing Updates

There's no way for livna.org to avoid temporary breakage. As soon as the
Fedora Core 1 Update for xmms will be released, livna.org will need to
publish the updated xmms-mp3 package. Else you could not update xmms from
1.2.8 to 1.2.9. That's why the new xmms-mp3 is in "testing" just like the
new xmms is in "Testing Updates".
