Christoph (who maintains the plugins in extras) has been working hard at getting them all rebuild against the (now rc1) rpms. Some of the plugins are still only available as svn snapshots, so it's been tricky to get them all. He pretty much has them all working now, and I have obsoleted the ones where functionality has moved into the panel or the like. I expect in the next few days we can get them all into my beta/rc repo for testing. In particular it will be nice to test upgrades from the 4.3.2 versions to 4.4rc1.
