see [6].

Repositories and Installation
* Use the following link to install the beta 2 packages [5].
* On Fedora-14 FreeIPA relies on the latest versions
of the packages currently available from the updates-testing
repository. Please make sure to enable this repository before
you proceed with installation.

Known Issues:
* There are known issues that currently prevent FreeIPA from successfully installing with dogtag on F-15 [2]. We will send a separate message when this issue is resolved. The FreeIPA server is installable with the –selfsign option on F-15, or with dogtag on F-14.
* Server-generated error messages are not translated yet.
