Well, I need this working in the next week or two, so waiting for FC7 full
release isn't an option and - frankly - I don't have the time in the short
term to take the FC7T3 upgrade in case it doesn't work and I have to spend
time reloading significant amount of disk.

Could I simply grab a source tarball and build it here, or does OO only
come in binary form ?
