Its a known problem. Mash (or what ever it is that generates the koji build
repo) uses some very random criteria for tagging packages into the build
repo. This is causing problems for noarch packages that are just imported by
build-previous as opposed to rebuilt esp for python. The problem is that
some of the packages, like the one you mention, were rebuilt/imported
explicitly to get the build root for koji up to a F-14 level. It should
hopefully just disappear once we have build-previous go to completion. The
real fix it to add a check for the script to check if a later release is
already in the tree.

Peter
