Hey folks! As we just hit a branch point, here's a refresher on what
this means for folks who've been running Rawhide.

If you want to keep running Rawhide, which will now contain packages
tracked for Fedora *22*, you don't need to do anything: just keep
updating. From tomorrow onwards, you'll start getting '.fc22' packages,
tracked for Fedora 22.

If you want to follow Fedora 21, you'll want to either remove the
'fedora-repos-rawhide' package (that replaced fedora-release-rawhide

# yum remove fedora-release-rawhide
...
...will be erased

Error: trying to remove "systemd", which is protected

today), or disable the Rawhide repository using a graphical repo config
manager or 'yum-config-manager' from yum-utils:

# yum install yum-config-manager
No package yum-config-manager available.
Error: Nothing to do

sudo yum-config-manager --disable rawhide

then you'll want to *enable* the regular Fedora repositories:

sudo yum-config-manager --enable fedora

and, optionally, enable updates-testing:

sudo yum-config-manager --enable updates-testing

if you miss the branch point and wind up on Rawhide (F22) but you want
to switch to F21, you'll want to do all the above, then do this:

sudo yum --releasever=21 distro-sync

which should get you back to F21.
...
Stay safe out there, intrepid pre-release-nauts!
