Hm, am I really making such an arrogant impression on you? ;)

FWIW some concerns about dependencies (like atrpms-.*rpm containing
the recomended configuration files for apt/yum) have been dealt with
(split out). In fact ATrpms' build system has been refined to only
create dependencies on kmdl and perl helper modules, i.e. dependencies
are currently extremly minimal.

(Note that this applies to packages build after some date around
new year)

But that's no surprise I guess. That is by fedora.us/livna design.

Note that you only need one entry of the above (e.g. bleeding contains
testing, testing contains good, good contains stable).

The currently recommended setting is testing BTW, stable and good are
rather underpopulated. I am possibly a bit over-conservative. ;)
