Yeah, looking at the message history for eicil helps show what
happened:

https://apps.fedoraproject.org/datagrepper/raw?package=eiciel

It looks like someone added eicil to release-monitoring.org, which
triggered a check.  But, like the message says, the pkgdb flag for
filing bugs new upstream release bugs in bugzilla is turned off for
eicil, so it didn't get any further than that.

Some vocabulary:

- release-monitoring.org - the code for this is called 'anitya'
  https://github.com/fedora-infra/anitya
  it monitors upstream projects for new tarball releases and publishes
  messages to a message bus when it finds them. It is intended to be
  distro-agnostic.. so you'll find stuff other than Fedora stuff
  there.

- the-new-hotness
  https://github.com/fedora-infra/the-new-hotness
  This is a Fedora-specific service running in the background in our
  infrastructure.  It listens for messages from anitya, and in
  response it files bugs in bugzilla for package maintainers, letting
  them know that a new upstream release is available.  You can toggle
  its behavior by turning some per-package flags on and off in pkgdb.

Does that help?
