I sure am happy that it was reported back in February then.  Yes I know 
this is a test release and that's why I don't bitch about it.  I took 
the chance on a test and it almost bit me in the ass.  I found my fix 
inside the bug report.  That worked for me, it doesn't work for everyone.

The people complaining about xine and real player not in the official 
distribution are the ones whining.  This is a real issue that _will_ 
make Fedora look bad if it's in Core 2.
