Yuck.  Fixing the bug about context-free links to build ids without 
package names has reintroduced the bug of generating broken links for 
long names or large package bundles.  How hard would it be to alter the 
script generating this file to instead output:

   https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2011-123456
     bar-1.2-1
   https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2011-123457
     foo-3.4-5
     other-3.4.5

which would solve BOTH bugs - give a working link with no line length 
problems, as well as giving the context of package names in a readable 
format?

Meanwhile, the bug fix should also fix the rendering of '='; I was 
noticeably slowed down in my scan through today's mail, because while I 
can quickly spot the difference between a visual line followed by text, 
as a way to jump from one package to the next once I have determined 
whether I want to read the details for a given package:

=======
package

my eyes struggled to pick out package names when there were four rows of 
line noise including alphabetic characters competing with a package name.
