I wouldn't be so hard on Livna. I like Dag and what RPM Forge has to
offer as well.

I wish all of them would frankly patch up their differences and work
together. It seems, unfortunately, too many flames and egos of people
dead set in a certain way of doing things have gotten in the way of
that.

Ironically, the required updates from Livna were posted today. You
should be able to update everything now.

Cheers,

Chris
