Hello all,
    I've been messing with the Fedora 20 ProjectAtomic VM recently and

noticed a couple issues with the geard package.

1) lacks sti binary

There shouldn't be a sti binary, use "gear build".

-bash-4.2# rpm -q geard
geard-0-0.9.git3c781d0.fc20.x86_64
-bash-4.2# rpm -ql geard
/usr/bin/gear
/usr/bin/switchns
/usr/lib/systemd/system/geard.service
/usr/sbin/gear-auth-keys-command
/usr/share/doc/geard
/usr/share/doc/geard/README.md
/var/lib/containers

>From a rawhide VM of mine (I just updated the geard package so this

brand new, there's also a build for F20 but it's not made it through bodhi yet).

[root rawhide ~]# rpm -q geard
geard-0-0.12.git7516dab.fc21.x86_64
[root rawhide ~]# rpm -ql geard
/usr/bin/gear
/usr/bin/sti
/usr/bin/switchns
/usr/lib/systemd/system/geard.service
/usr/sbin/gear-auth-keys-command
/usr/share/doc/geard
/usr/share/doc/geard/README.md
/var/lib/containers

We should remove this binary.

2) There's an issue with 'gear build' though I'm not certain if this is

just geard or some supporting lib/util that also needs updating, so I 

would like to do some testing and more digging. But wanted to

point it out none the less.

I was curious how I would go about doing a tree-compose on my own to

test and make sure these issues are resolve by just the latest geard 

package?

What's the general workflow for that sort of thing?

How would I request a new compose for the Fedora 20 VM hosted at 

projectatomic.io in the event this does resolve the issue? (and would I 

need to make sure the geard package made it through Bodhi first?)

Thank you,
