NEVER do that!!!

If you'd taken half a minute to check, you would have seen that it sucks in a grand total of sqlite and xulrunner.  Yeehaw.

If anything, you should be chastising me for making such an obvious suggestion.  This is the -devel list, after all.  I probably should have assumed that in addition to being able to make a decision about what to install on their system and from where, members of this list would know they could potentially use rawhide builds on a non-rawhide install.

I will grant you that back (f11? f10?) before 3.5 hit, grabbing it from rawhide would drag in a giant quagmire.  But it's pretty easy to hit 'n' when yum asks if you want to update half your system.

I'm sure Remi's a helpful and trustworthy guy, but I trust a build out of the fedora buildsystem proper more.
