Change the two "enabled=1" lines in your jpackage.repo file to "enabled=0".

It depends on whether you use any packages from the JPackage repo or not.

Me too. I'd suggest the jpackage bugzilla but there doesn't appear to be 
a component set up there for geronimo-specs.

Bearing in mind that Fedora tries to stay compatible with JPackage, you 
could also consider raising the problem in Fedora bugzilla. I wouldn't 
be surprised if it reached the same person anyway.
