Yeah, me too. The real fix is to not make package version numbers so
!@#@ long.

It's curious, because today a bug came in about repository names getting
truncated when you run "( echo repo list ; echo exit ) | yum shell"

I wonder if there should be no truncation at all, and tab separated
fields, etc. Or maybe it just doesn't matter in the long run.
