The rpm is there, but it's no longer referenced in the latest
primary.xml. It seems to have been in the original beta2, but not in
the latest refresh. In fact, it looks like the beta2-refresh (why not
beta3?) was prepared and createrepo'd elsewhere and simply copied over
the top of the existing beta directory leaving a whole bunch of
orphaned rpms.
