Calm down! It's only a small matter of cherry picking the patches
back to F17, which will take a matter of minutes to fix. But first,
and more importantly, how can I get email from koji-shadow as to
whether the builds it is doing are successful or not?
Richard, we have processes for doing builds for a reason, so it's
simple for you to say calm down when you don't have to clean up the
mess or deal with rel-eng when the repositories don't align and cause
us issues.
It won't build in koji-shadow until it's at least built and tagged
into either f18 or f-17 updates-testing or stable. So you get things
built and once it starts to filter through I can give you failures.
