Thanks for notifying me.

In the future, it would be very helpful if you could also send these
kind of reports to overseers AT sources DOT redhat DOT com.  Then any one of a
number of people could potentially deal with the problem.

...of course, it'll probably still be me who deals with the problem but
it's still a nice theory.

I guess everyone should now be less than surprised to find that old
versions of packages will be disappearing RSN.  It would be a help if
people would delete their old packages now and save me the hassle,
though.
