Re: RFC regarding rpmfusion-{non,}free-release and F11

- mark the repo files for the initial

files and users would need to merge those changes into the new files
(but they would have to do that anyway, even if the files would be
marked as %config(noreplace))
Does that sound like a plan? Yes, I'm well aware that it has
some
downsides, but afaics it's the one that works painlessly for most
people. Or am I missing a better way?
Imho repo config files must not be marked as %config without noreplace,
because they may contain vital options that may mess up the whole system if
they are overwritten, e.g. if options like excludepkgs, priority or protect
are removed.
In the fedora.repo file from F10, there is $basearch used in the URL of the
gpgkey, maybe it is also possible to use $releasever there, so that it is
possible to use the same gpgkey URL for several Fedora Releases, e.g.
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-rpmfusion-free-fedora-$releasever
