The golden rule for using prepackaged CVS bits is to reproduce any
found bugs with a pure source build before bugging the developers
about it. This policy ensures that there is a good signal to noise
ratio on this list.

Having said that, there are new CVS rpms being uploaded, so you may
want to test these.

If you encounter problems/bugs, please uninstall the rpms and build
from sources. If you still see the problem please file a bug report
here. Otherwise bug me (at atrpms-users or bugzilla.atrpms.net
preferably) about having done a buggy packaging. :)
