Comment (by avij):
bstinson asked me to open a ticket for this task, so here it is. I suppose
this ticket can be used for determining what would be the best solution
for automatically detecting broken dependencies. Today's case of munin and
perl-Net-CIDR showed that we'd need to find some sort of a solution to
this problem.
I'm sure Taskotron would fulfill this need much more elegantly than my 15
lines of shell script. Taskotron was discussed in some earlier meeting,
but it wasn't quite ready yet at that time. Perhaps it can be enabled for
EPEL now, or when the orphan packages have been purged in December. There
are folks who know the Taskotron situation much better than I do.
Until the switch to Taskotron happens, I'll be happy to take care of
notifying packagers of broken EPEL dependencies using my own script.
