Hrm okay I don't know how I missed it, anyway the point is there needs
to be a better way to notify people on changes like this.
There is only one person CC'd on the ppc64 bugzilla, with the current
procedure, every package maintainer who needs a devel package should
be CC'd on these excludearch bugs, no??
Why can't we develop some way for a devel package maintainer to email
package maintainers who buildrequire your devel package?
