1.using a private version of another piece of software is definitely a
no-no for fedora. either submit it separately, or arrange for the
existing one to be patched. and make use of the blocker bugs to notify
that one bug blocks/is blocked by another one
2. untar, patch, use. (and add a comment in the spec)
