Hi,
I noticed you recently retired classpathx-jaf. There are still quite a few packages requiring this package though: $ repoquery --whatrequires classpathx-jaf classpathx-jaf-0:1.0-15.1.fc12.x86_64 ant-javamail-0:1.7.1-12.fc12.x86_64 ant-javamail-0:1.7.1-13.fc13.x86_64 axis-0:1.2.1-7.fc12.x86_64 classpathx-mail-0:1.1.1-9.1.fc12.x86_64 dumbster-0:1.6-9.fc12.noarch ec2-api-tools-0:1.3.53907-3.fc14.noarch javatar-0:2.5-2.fc13.x86_64 mx4j-1:3.0.1-9.9.fc12.x86_64 mx4j-1:3.0.1-9.11.fc13.noarch tomcat5-0:5.5.27-7.4.fc12.noarch + gdata-java for BR
Unfortunately dead.package contents don't help me much: $ cat dead.package Obsolete package."
When you are retiring a package it's considered common courtesy to let other stakeholders know about it. Care to elaborate what happened?

- gdata-java for BR
Ah, sorry. This is actually only javatar and gdata-java in rawhide. Still it would have been nicer if you would send email to their owners first :-)
javatar itself was fixed already in rawhide by orionp by requiring java
= 1:1.6.0 (that's the information that should have been in dead.package
IMO).

Sorry about that. It's entirely my fault. Classpathx-jaf has been merged into gcj long long time ago. It is now obsoleted by java-1.5.0-gcj but not provided in order to not having do this for every JVM out there. You don't need to BR java >=1:1.6.0 but just >= 1:1.5.0 . Every occurance of jaf should be simply removed as we no longer ship pre 1.5 JVMs.
P.S. I'm the one that added the obsolete and asked devrim to deprecate it.
