Because that version (2.1.0) of "Rivendell" (as released by the project of that name) isn't a 'beta' version. It works quite well on a number of different distros. > ...and I am not going back to 11.04 Ubuntu just to run Rivendell... I already > wiped out my system recently from a hard drive problem...

You can run Rivendell on a distro where the integration and testing work has been done for you already (such as Ubuntu 11.04 or CentOS 5), or you can try going 'bleeding edge' on a distro that's never been tried before, in which case you'll be doing that integration work yourself. That's the nature of FOSS. In either case, cocking an attitude towards those who are trying to help you here (and who are, I might add, doing so entirely voluntarily) is probably not a real smart strategy.
