You'll have to forgive me. I'm new at this. How do I download the package for testing?

No need to apologize, I was just advising you ;-) As for the download, you can either grab it from koji, or wait till it gets pushed to updates-testing. IIRC this bug will get updated by then and will contain info how to test the update.
Thanks. I finally found it here: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=273766 It would be nice if those two were easily linked somehow. Anyway, installed from koji. Tests ok and resolves bugs.
