In the cases where you have an fc12 package and there is no fc13

time, but if the fc12 package works, there's no intrinsic problem here
for a user to worry about.
There are two cases to distinguish. Packages with the fc12 dist tag
that are also in F13, such as zlib-1.2.3-23.fc12
(
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=124463), are
fine. Packages that are not in F13, such as gdevilspie, will appear in
"package-cleanup --orphans" output and should be considered unsupported
if one chooses to leave them installed.
