Okay. I've made the netcf-0.2.2 upstream release that has the specfile
changes, updated both rawhide and F18 packages, made a build for both
and verified that they did use libnl3 rather than libnl1, and requested
the F18 package be pushed to updates-testing. Here is the link to the
f18 package:

   https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/netcf-0.2.2-1.fc18

The will be in updates-testing "soon" (I don't know if they do it once a
day or twice a day).

I'm also not sure if a buildroot override is still necessary once a
package has hit updates-testing. If so, here's the link to the page that
describes how to set that up:
