Probably nobody took the time to have a look if this rpm can be
trusted. This is nothing against the person who did the rpm, it is just
that with the official fedora-rpms, there is someone "official" behind
who has some reputation, whereas Peter Littmann who generated the rpm
is at least unknown to me and as such has an unknown reputation.
