Hi all,
what happened to the python twisted framework in EPEL 4? For quite a while I receive broken dependency mails for the package pyicq-t but only for the EL4 branch, where I'm even not a maintainer of. Since I'm not using EL4 I'm not really up to date, but if I remember right the framework was available at least a year ago. Was it silently removed? If so, what should happen to packages which depend on it?
There isn't even a git branch for python-twisted-core for el4 so I'd be surprised if it ever existed there.
Unless someone wants to build python-twisted-* for el4 and look after it for the last nine months or so of its life, it would probably make more sense to pull dependent packages from the repo.
If someone actually does want to build python-twisted-* for el4, I have some packages here that may be a good base:

I don't want to do it myself though.
