So as a result we are just leaving this security issue unresolved
more than one month? Okay, it is all very well that we try to explain
why the new updates request is not yet pushed, however then people
would ask, "so why can't Fedora try to fix such issue like broken
dependency ASAP? Short of man power? Is Fedora just making light
of security issues?"

Who is responsible for this issue?
