They are not part of plague, they are not needed by plague, but they can still
be found in CVS in the "pushscript" sub-directory.

[One of the primary reasons they have been moved there is the included 
copy of yum and the added configuration support. That makes it much easier
to re-use the script for repositories other than Fedora Extras. The
Config_Extras.py file becomes  Config_PROJECTNAME.py  (for customisation)
and then either the scripts are run like  "./Push.py PROJECTNAME options-here"
or you create wrapper-scripts like the examples extras-push,
extras-repobuild and so on, where the projectname can be filled in and
activates the right Config file.]
