If you look closely, you can see a message "Collection `fc3' unknown",
which kind of makes sense, but... what is a known collection then?
I puzzled a little and remembered that bhc uses dist-X syntax, and
indeed the following works:
[zaitcev@porkchop zaitcev]$ pkg-owner dist-fc3 pan
zaitcev(a)REDHAT.COM
[zaitcev@porkchop zaitcev]$
What a weird software package we use for everyday work :-)
What is pkg-owner?
