Yes. I was a bit suspicious about that line myself. At the the moment I'm 
booted up into FC5 on the same machine, and am downloading the deps for 
Tapeutape. Saying this, they're done, and installing, but I'll forego 
building Tapeutape on FC5, and reboot F7, and comment out that line.

Lets see how it goes.
