I think everybody agrees that this is an unnecessary obstacle. At last Flock
somebody (it might have been sgallagh, I don't remember for sure) said that
they added that check and it could be removed. But it's there atm.

Like I said, I'll review the new ticket, so it's just a question of filling out
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Fedora&format=fedora-review
and copying comment #12. I think that should hardly matter compared to the
amount of work required for a package.

OK.
