For what it's worth, my report (the first with the dependency issue) and a subsequent one were also from updates-testing, and both did not have the dependency available. I did do a manual check of Koji and Bodhi to try and figure out why my results were different from the previous testers, and could only find the necessary build in Koji, which quite frankly left me very confused and unsure if I was experiencing some kind of mirror sync issue and/or chronic lack of coffee syndrome. I now understand the initial positive karma results had something to do with a buildroot override. I probably should have left negative karma or somesuch, but as the update was already going to stable regardless and I wasn't sure if I was doing something wrong, I just left a neutral comment. One more thing I was confused by was how the update passed the AutoQA depcheck tests, which I understood (probably incorrectly) were meant to catch things like this. In fact, the AutoQA test results for the update actually show the dependency issue,[1] so I'm not sure what was going on there. -- Regards, Theodore Lee/"antiaircraft" [1] http://autoqa.fedoraproject.org/report/1cafn
