Sadly that doesn't work either in the Koji system, because MBS does
not see those modules as belonging to anything it has built. So it
seems it can only depend on modules which it has built .. So not only
do we have to build this tool as a module, we also have to build
pki-deps:10.6 locally.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Flame wars in
sci.astro.orion. I have seen SPAM filters overload because of Godwin's
Law. All those moments will be lost in time... like posts on a BBS...
time to shutdown -h now.
