So they can file the bug to let us know. We all make mistakes and we
need lots of people to catch them.
Also complain in all the outlets available to them that yum is broken.
Perhaps we should look at an automatic/silent notification of dependency
problems.
This problem only really shows up when you have multiple repos that are
dependant on each other or in rawhide. Rawhide is understandable but
there should be someway of sparing the end user of a released Fedora 7
from these update problems. They can then concentrate on higher level bugs.
