That's what I thought ... thanks for confirmation...

Since you ask ;-):

I've got a question about ATrpms:

Why are you providing also updates of packages which are
in the base distribution (either FC or RH) ?:

for example:

zlib ?
xorg-x11 ?
libtool ?
(... etc ...)

changelog of above does not give any hint why have you
rebuilt these ?
Do these differ from ones released by RH/FC ?

Giving the unablity of yum to setup repository
preference and at the same time importance of strict
RHEL compatibility at which many of Scientific Linux
users aim ...

This could be potentially a problem .. I believe ?

Cheers

Jarek
