I just found out about the package "brandy" and was saddened to realize that I missed the orphan-deprecation announcement. I'd like to take this one.
Oddly, I see that the dead.package file states that:
This package was retired on 2011-07-25 due to it being unable to build this package for multiple releases (FTBFS).
However, it was built successfully for F15, and currently builds fine on both primary archs without change.

There was an error in the package retiring script that set the reason for all of the recent retirees to FTBFS. My apologies.
