Nuno, As you started review this pacakge please, set the flag 'fedora-review' to
? and remove the block FE-NEW.

thanks

This package is stalled due to unresolved packaging dependencies.
Setting fedora-review=?, removing block.

those unresolved packages dependencie's bugs should be paste in dependencies
block below.
That's avoid confusion for any reviewer.

I'm closing the review request, this will be repackaged differently at a later
time to solve some of the issues mentioned above.
