Cc'd Dennis to see if this can happen in koji. If it can't I would not be opposed to the new package unretiring the name and having the pkgdb entry updated to the new package. The git history would have both the old package's commits and the new one's.

I hope I did not move to fast, but after discussing on irc with rdieter, I went forward and took over the repo of the retired package, updating the description. See [1] for the irc conversation.
