But be warned that cherry-picking from Rawhide is COMPLETELY UNSUPPORTED and 
may break at any moment. For example, if a central library like openssl or 
openldap gets a soname bump, everything will get rebuilt against it, and then 
the new KDE will drag in the new library, which will replace the old version, 
and the removal of the old version of the library will drag in all the other 
rebuilds. Moreover, there's no way we can test all arbitrary combinations of 
Rawhide and F9 packages. Rawhide packages are set up to work well with other 
Rawhide packages, not necessarily F9 ones.
