I agree that it could probably be repoman's job, but I also think there are
still things that repoman doesn't do and that could be very useful.
For instance, checking (for all arches, for all use flag combos) if the
dependencies are as stable or more stable (x86 > ~x86 > hard masked) than
the thing depending on it.
I suppose a lot of people have thought of this before, but I thought I'd
mention it anyway. I for one would be grateful to whoever implemented this.
Maurice.
