Well, it depends on how we do the branch. If we only branch packages
that exist in the development/release tree at the time, we don't worry
about this problem. (It's what was done for F7.)
That might work, but still leaves the (admittedly a bit nitpicky)
problem for me of: how do I know a package is OLPC only in my checking
script ? It's a sort of chicken-egg problem: if I notice that the
package has not been built for devel, how do I know it is intentional ?
