I haven't tried this 'cos I know it'll just take me for ever to get it
going and I'll busticate something which will result in extremely WAF
ratings. However, I believe that ATrpms used to take CVS feeds and
package source rpms. I assume it still does from SVN - see
http://dl.atrpms.net/src/fc3-i386/atrpms/SRPMS.stable/

Take a look at http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/104352?search_string=Putting%20a%20toe%20in%20the%20CVS%20water;#104352
and see it it helps. As you will see I was out of my depth and that's
why I didn't take it any further at the time, but it might mean
something to you.

Good luck!
