Makes sense - you have my ACK from a review standpoint, although I'd at
least like to test a build against the netcf package from F18
updates-testing if we have time to do that before DV cuts the 0.10.0
release.

Question - should we _also_ be stating that on F17, netcf must be less
than 0.2.2?  I don't know if the specfile format allows you to specify a
version window, or if it even makes sense (I'm guessing that 'yum
update' will detect the .so conflict even if we don't specify a maximum
version, if you try to rebuild too-new netcf on an older Fedora).  So I
don't think this comment requires you to make any changes.
