The "broken-dependencies nagbot" for Rawhide and development/14 is run
within "mash" when composing a single repo independently of any
older/newer repo. For example, when composing Rawhide, it doesn't know
about the package NEVRs included in any older dist. It couldn't be tought
to examine upgrade path issues without a complete redesign. Though, after
composing the repo, the separate upgrade path checker (the one that
queries koji) could be run, although it would send separate mails to the
packagers. On the other hand, running that one weekly or bi-weekly would
also do the job.
