It seems to me that Stanton's instructions could be simplified.

The files that you're trying to import doesn't exist (pull it up in
your web browser to verify that).  It shouldn't cause rpm to segfault
though.  That's a bug in rpm.

The instructions are hidden on the FreshRPMS home page.  :)

"The easiest way to install freshrpms.net packages is to click here
from within firefox, choose to open with Software Installer (the
default) then go to Add/Remove Software from the main menu, where new
applications will be available in the list."
