Adding the KDE Software Development standard packages I get the following Packages Not Found along with a list of packages that are Unlocatable and required

ex:
Umlocatable                              Required
redhat-config-rootpassword  ('firstboot', '1.1.19', '2' )

I'm assuming the '1.1.19', '2' is the version of the firstboot package and that it would be on my system? Think I'll look around while I wait for your reply.
