Broken deps will be fixed when we manage to update maven-shared. Since this requires an interconnected set of dependencies, it should probably have been done by requesting a special build tag from rel-eng, like dist-f12-maven2. Then all rebuilds could be done against the new tag and once all was working correctly, then you would request a retagging back into the regular dist-f12 in one hit. That way you get all the packages updated to the new maven2 in one hit and it can be rolled back easily if the entire maven doesn't make the release date. This is how major updates to Python and Perl are done. The way it's currently done means that because you don't know how long it will take to update all the relevant packages, the brokeness might be around until F-12 and makes it harder to roll back to a last known good version.
