The set for RT can be found at:
http://campus.fct.unl.pt/paulomatos/rt/repository/3.4.x/SRPMS/
and it all seems to work.  However the rt rpm itself is modified
to move it's parts into a Redhat-like layout instead of living
under the stock /opt/rt3/.  Unfortunately this makes it incompatible
with 3rd part addons like asset tracker unless they are modified
to match.  I'm running a hand-built one in production and just
testing this - thinking about doing an install to pull in all those
perl module dependencies, then removing this RT and dropping 
in a stock version.  I haven't looked at the FC5-packaged version
yet to see it it has the same issue - or if the other addons have
been packaged there to mach.
