Thank You for Your answer.
After half of year of using fc5 I noticed that livna is the largest repository for fc5, but unfortunatelly at installation time, I read installation notes and it contained steps for using freshrpms and dries repositories.

I wonder why do You suggest me to use livna. Is it because You also noticed that this is the bigest repository or there are also any other advantages I do not realize.

Regards
