Axel Thimm posted an announcement that ATrpms offer now Fedora 8 packages



ATrpms is officially launching Fedora 8 support for i386, x86_64 and ppc.

http://ATrpms.net/dist/f8/

o The actual download location is http://dl.atrpms.net/. Mirrors are listed at http://atrpms.net/mirrors/

o "stable", "testing" and "bleeding", the three subrepos per distribution are not cumulative inclusive on the server side. E.g. you need to add "stable" for "testing", and both "stable" and "testing" for "bleeding".

ATrpms is a 3rd party general purpose package repository. It currently supports

o F8/i386, F8/x86_64, F8/ppc, F7/i386, F7/x86_64, F7/ppc, FC6/i386, FC6/x86_64, FC6/ppc
o RHEL5/i386, RHEL5/x86_64, RHEL4/i386, RHEL4/x86_64, RHEL3/i386, RHEL3/x86_64

FC6 support will be EOL'd once the Fedora Project drops support for it (e.g. on December 7, 2007).
