FYI, I can guarantee (almost) that there will be no future upgrades to 
libgal2 in the kde-redhat repo.  Further, I'm leaning toward putting 
evolution 'n friends into it's own repo/section, so only people 
purposely wanting it, will get it.  Lastly, I *do* plan on creating a 
libgal2 compat rpm for fc1(*).
