Until this is resolved there's going to be broken dependency for blam.

Comment 1 Alex Lancaster 2010-03-24 22:04:09 UTC

This is particularly odd since the same version build just fine in rawhide/F-14:

I'm not sure if blam is still active upstream.  I don't use it myself and only picked up a while back to stop it being orphaned.  It may be time to retire it, I'll look into it.

Comment 2 Fedora Update System 2010-03-24 23:21:37 UTC

blam-1.8.7-1.fc13 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 13.

Comment 3 Alex Lancaster 2010-03-24 23:24:33 UTC

OK, I updated this to 1.8.7 which uses webkit rather than gecko, so should fix the broken deps issue.  Please karma +1 this update.

Comment 4 Fedora Update System 2010-03-25 22:27:44 UTC

blam-1.8.7-1.fc13 has been pushed to the Fedora 13 stable repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
