Fair enough; thanks for the information.

When I say that Extras is nowhere near being ready for use as an excuse
for dumping packages for FC4, that is no reflection on your own efforts.

In FC5, following the stated policy of 'no more than one of anything' by
dumping the second and third MTAs, the second implementation of SSH, the
second implementation of zlib etc. makes some sense. That policy can be
sane when Extras is really working, and when the policy is actually
followed consistently.
