I've cobbled together my own .rpm packages
using the latest source from git
I think they have some minor problems
bad %files section
but I think they are close enough for now
and I think they will automatically be updated when 0.5.2
hits the repositories.
But I'm not 100% sure I haven't made some mistakes that
are bigger than I realize, since I have not really built any
rpms for years.
I'll be happy when my funky rpms are replaced.

It's a public wiki ... so community generated examples are always
welcome anytime. You'll need to create a Fedora Account System account
to get
started: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/
However, just to get folks started, I've written some things up:
https://hosted.fedoraproject.org/projects/cobbler/wiki/KickstartTemplating
Probably more than most want to know :)
