OOB fetches packages from the relevant "olpc" repos, and then passes
that list of packages as packages to _ignore_ in the fedora repos.

So a package Z in one of our repos means that Z packages in the fedora
repos are completely ignored.

This preserves patched rpms we may have (xkeyboard-config, kernel...)
from being bumped out by Fedora updates.
