I performed a minor update on the package database yesterday.  This 
should fix a variety of issues with how ownership of packages were 
displayed.
* Looking at a package page will no longer show a person who has removed 
all their acls from the package.
* Looking at the list of packages you own will no longer show packages 
from which you've removed all your acls.
* Packages which are only owned (or orphaned) in EOL releases no longer 
show up in a person's packagelisting page.

There are also a few features related to filtering of results that have 
been enabled.  There isn't a UI element for them yet but power users who 
  are willing to edit their URLs can limit what is displayed on the 
package page according to the release by doing something like this:

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/packages/name/yum/Fedora%20EPEL/
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/packages/name/yum/Fedora
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/packages/name/yum/Fedora/devel

You can also limit what is displayed on the user overview of packages 
like so:

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/users/packages/toshio?acls=owner
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/users/packages/toshio?acls=owner,commit

The acls that you can list in the acls field are:
owner,commit,approveacls,watchbugzilla,watchcommits
