So.  picasa should still be in the repository, at least in the testing
or beta.  Software repositories are what makes open source operating
systems so much less expensive to manage.  Windows can not compete
with Linux/BSD when it comes to Patch management.  What happened to
all google employees need to use Linux?  Finding and Downloading and
Installing and Updating takes way too much time.  Please put picasa
updates in the repositories.

This is what shows up on my Fedora box after running:
yum --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=google* list | grep -i goog
picasa.i386                        3.0.5744-02                @google-
testing
