You missed the point, this process was started 3 weeks away from now with the help of rdieter since then. The problem is about this legitimate update that was truncated by some bodhi ACL weirdness I didn't expected. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2011-12320 In others words, I've pushed this ticket to stable but only packages I actually own was pushed to dist-16, others packages in this tickets went back to limbo. This unexpected behavior evidently broke dependencies. While submitting this update to stable I was even informed that packages I didn't own was tagged as dist-16. This didn't take into.
