From that point on, they're in the "on your own" land, and I'm perfectly happy with their system getting eaten alive. There is a REASON we don't include those repos. Setting up more (easily removable for those that know) roadblocks will do nothing more than confuse the user even more, and create more hostility toward the 3rd party packagers. -- Jesse Keating Release Engineer: Fedora
