Revelation password manager issue

Hello all,

I suspect this is going to be a weird problem to figure out.

Relevation password manager
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/applications/Revelation Password Manager

Has been found to be unsafe.

I would hope it gets fixed at some future point, but something should
probably be done in the short term.

I'm not sure what Fedora precedent is on issues like this. We can't
really revoke such a package, and we also want to give users a warning
to use a different password manager (I'm not entirely sure how to best
do this).

Does anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks.
