Aha. You're right. The atrpms instructions seems to have an error :

http://www.atrpms.net/install.html

"
|#
# atrpms
# Fedora Core 6 - i386 - ATrpms
#
[atrpms]
name=Fedora Core 6 - i386 - ATrpms
baseurl=http://dl.atrpms.net/fc6-i386/atrpms/stable type=rpm-md
"

that 'type=rpm-md' should be on it's own line - at least, when I put it 
on it's own line, it all works as expected.

Thanks!

Max.
