 Originally posted in the package review BZ:
 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1076192#c14 for '''python-
 bitmath'''

----

I have been successfully able to submit updates to the f19 and f20
 branches:

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/python-bitmath-1.0.8-3.fc19
 https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/python-bitmath-1.0.8-3.fc20

I am, however, unable to submit updates for: f21, el6, and epel7

Result of "fedpkg build" while on the "el6" branch:

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=7308083

However, "fedpkg update" informs me:

{{{
 Creating a new update for  python-bitmath-1.0.8-3.el6
 Invalid build: python-bitmath-1.0.8-3.el6
 }}}

When setting "type" to **enhancement** or **newpackage**.

The same behavior is exhibited when submitting updates for the f21 and
 epel7 branches.

**NOTE** That these branches, f21, el6, and epel7 do not currently have
 the python-bitmath package in them.

I checked on the [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_update_HOWTO
 Package Update HOWTO] docs first, but didn't find any guidance for this
 problem. Is there something I need to do to make this possible, or am I
 doing something wrong?

Thanks!

Comment (by kevin):

The el6 build you point to above seems to be a scratch build. You can't
 submit a scratch build as an update. ;)

Are you sure you did the 'fedpkg build' there?

Comment:

The f21 build got through before Bodhi was active, so no need to create an
 update there. For the EPEL branches, please create non-scratch builds. If
 you have further questions, please ask here on on IRC in #fedora-releng.
