Also, it's good to have allies on the inside. See jpackage FAQ about
"I tried to install foo on Fedora Core 2, but got lots of error
messages and/or things don't work": http://www.jpackage.org/faq.php

Note the line:

"""This issue should be fixed in Fedora Core 3, thanks to Red Hat's
involvement in JPackage."""

Google cache from one of the messages since the archive is broke:
http://66.102.7.104/search?q=cache:I2Me1f05Eb0J:lists.zarb.org/pipermail/jpackage-discuss/2004-October/011253.html+jpackage-discuss++011253&hl=en&client=firefox-a

Sound familiar? And, in about 6 months "Core/Extras vs 3rd Party"
might show up on this list again...
