I tried to install that today, without success.  Everything downloaded, 66 
packages, then I got lots of messages like

file /usr/share/kde4/servicetypes/plasma_comicprovider.desktop conflicts
between attempted installs of kdeplasma-addons-4.0.99-1.fc9.i386 and
kdeplasmoids-4.0.98-1.fc9.i386

I guess I'd better hang on, though time to Akademy is short :-)
