Hi Dave,

The FedoraFAQ.org site states the following on its front page:

"NOTE: This is not an official form of support. This is not an official
service of Red Hat. These things may solve your worst nightmare, or they
may eat all of the cheese  in your house. I make no guarantees. YMMV."

so, given that it is truly unofficial, it may not make it into the
default setup (due to IP/licensing/legal implications of the packages
offered from Livna repos).
