====================================================================

So, taking them one at a time:

Wnn6-SDK  simply installs.

apt-get install kinput2-canna-wnn6
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
The following packages will be REPLACED:
  kinput2 (by kinput2-canna-wnn6)
The following NEW packages will be installed:

After unpacking 25.0kB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]

As I don't do Japanese, I have no problem here. But the last two have
got to go! In reverse order:

The following packages will be REMOVED:
  module-init-tools
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  modutils
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 1 removed and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 614kB of archives.
After unpacking 878kB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n] n
Abort.
[root@concerto 15:31:45] ~#

ModuleInitTools is even up to 3.0. So, welcome to FC3! <grin>

And, now the real stinker:

The following NEW packages will be installed:
  dev
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 203 removed and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 3775kB of archives.
After unpacking 1872MB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n] n
Abort.
[root@concerto 15:01:13] ~#

Of course, we're now on udev.
