Hey, Kevin and Richard

I've installed this zif from koji and I'm still not able to complete a "zif
install paprefs" transaction with realworld F15 configured public repository
set, whereas all the yum based tools: yum. repoquery etc... complete as
expected.

Here is what yum repolist returns

repo id                                                  repo
