Be careful with this repo if you only want PK though. At one point it
upgraded the Fedora vendor hal packages to some of Richard's packages
that didn't work that well. I started called it contraband after both
Ray and Matthias complained to me that hal didn't work ;-)

Apart from that, the existence of the repo is a nice community service.
