If the rt3 package was being reviewed for Extras now, it wouldn't be
allowed in /var/www/rt3, let alone /var/www/html. Web apps in Extras
must now go in /usr/share.

Auto-adding aliases sounds like a bad idea to me; far too easy to get it
wrong and/or clobber an existing address.

Does rt3 need any SELinux adjustments other than setting the context
of /var/cache/rt3, which is already included in targeted policy on FC5?
