Broken 32-bit F14 EC2 images?

[Brian LaMere]

ec2-ami-tools shouldn't have been installed if I recall correctly, as it is
not FOSS.  I (perhaps incorrectly?) remember someone saying it would be
removed from the next image version.  I've had Life(tm) happening as of late
so I haven't been at many of the recent meetings or tried to stay in the
loop much, so I may be incorrect about that.

Either way, you can remove it easily enough, without worry.  Unless you'll
be allocating new AWS recources from the instance, it's not going to be of
use - and if you do want to do such a thing, euca2ools are better, anyway.
