Message:

Miscellaneous updates to our installation document.

In particular:

    * Minimal installs (introduced in Fedora 13) allow you to
      avoid having to disable a bunch of gunk.

    * We do checkouts from scripts.mit.edu these days, not some
      arbitrarily chosen source server.

    * make install-deps may silently fail to install some packages

    * scripts-build needs to be in the mock group

    * Docs on how to turn passworded auth back on for new Fedora
      release development

    * Pointer to the new upgrade-tips documentation
