I'm sorry. I am new to the Fedora infrastructure. I didn't know what to
do right away. I requested the remove when it was addressed to me. I
half hoped there would be a solution that would not require me to remove
the builds. Anyways, they are removed.

Yes, I'm sorry I didn't promptly give up on things.

Extras Rawhide-in-Mock Build Results for x86_64 Sat Feb 3 07:41:25 CST
2007 is the first I was aware of the possible issue, other then my devel
branch not building.
It was directly requested I removed the packages on April 10th. After
trying to get compat packages included I gave up and finally requested
the removal.

I don't personally know. I don't think it will make it into the on-image
release notes but I would expect something to be added to the wiki?
