  Same as...
Nazwa              : mozilla-adblockplus
Architektura       : noarch
Wersja             : 1.3.8
Wydanie            : 1.fc15

  I would strongly prefer third parties not to reinvent whole packaging
and repositories concept.  Some companies grasp it (I have yum repos
provided for Google Earth and Talk Plugin, Dell BIOSes and firmwares,
Adobe Flash and Air, Virtualbox...).

  Actually, if addons.m.o and extensions.g.o provided yum.repo file,
my point would be moot.
