Do we need a "No broken deps" Objective?

Hi everybody,

I'm a bit concerned about the growing number of broken dependencies in
fedora, which leads to non-installable (FTI) and un-buildable (FTBFS)
packages. For rawhide [0], I see almost 400 source packages and almost
200 x86_64 packages with broken deps. Especially the number of source
packages with broken dependencies has steadily been growing since 29.

With a bit of effort, a lot of these broken packages could be fixed
quite easily, but it would still need a coordinated effort by a group
of people. I think an Objective would fit for that purpose.

PS: Feel free to browse the data in the linked pagure repo. I'm
regenerating it daily with the latest state of all fedora branches. If
somebody is interested in getting notified about any of their packages
getting broken deps (for example, in -testing, before things get
broken in stable), I can work out some kind of automatic (opt-in)
notification system :)
