Then all you have to do is to enable the RPM Fusion updates repos as 
well and it'll just work as before. Yes, that's a bit more complicated 
then before, but there is a benefit: ordinary users can just use RPM 
Fusion in anaconda without thinking about updates.

And BTW, the split in base and updates repos is also needed for spin 
creations, as the problem is quite similar there.
