Oh by all means no. I am not fighting anything. I consume several of
the Atrpms packages. However, the Livna and Atrpms packages are often
incompatible, while Livna and FreshRPMs etc package aren't. I would
love to see Atrpms become part of http://rpmfusion.org/ and be done
with these redundancies. Atrpms provides the best Mythtv package
(without which I would be at a big loss)
On the other hand, through the years I've been at
irc://freenode/fedora , I have seen more issues related to packages
from Atrpms than Livna -- I don't claim to know why.
As a somewhat weak example of a conflict (likely since resolved)
http://bugzilla.livna.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1253 and
http://bugzilla.atrpms.net/show_bug.cgi?id=1056
On another note, if someone needs me to come in with a leather strap
and beat all the third party repos into cooperation I will be happy to
do so.
