Anyone who implements my suggestion will discover a bug.

AC3's "fedora-release" package has been published with "release_version" 
set to "5", which is correct for the Fedora Core build it came from, but 
not for Alpha Core. The repository seems to work fine, but you'll need 
to hard-code the path as "ftp://ftp.alphacore.info/alpha/core/3/os";.


Sergey - if I put together a fresh package, say "alphacore-release" with 
all the FC references removed, can you work it into the main tree?

Even though the version number will go backwards, I'm pretty sure that 
if I put "Obsoletes: fedora-release" and "Provides: fedora-release" in 
the spec file, it'll upgrade fine.
