Breakage in Extras is of interest to us, since usually it can be fixed
with updates, rebuilds, and so on. If help from Core/Legacy is needed,
bugzilla is the place where to ask for that.

What to report where is just a matter of running a different report
script.

Repoclosure is run on all of Core + Updates + Legacy + Extras from FC-3 to
Rawhide, but only broken packages in Extras are reported to this list. The
full repoclosure output is not lost, as it's kept on disk for 14 days.
