Who would like to re-arrange this report to be more effective and useful ?

1. The broken dependency first, not the package that requires it !
[libboost_thread-mt.so.1.48.0()(64bit)] [{owner/username/last commiter}]
        blocking:
   LuxRender
   condor
   ekiga
   flush
   gearmand
   glob2
   glom
   iwhd
   leechcraft
 total: 9 packages blocked due to missing dependency on {blah}
  last: previously found in package libboost, from source package boost
  (or whatever).

And so on.

2. The other simplifying thing would be to only note x86_64 or 686 if
both are not broken.
eg:
both broken:
[libboost_thread-mt.so.1.48.0()(64bit)]
[libboost_thread-mt.so.1.48.0()]
show only once as
[libboost_thread-mt.so.1.48.0()] !both!

, but show:
[libboost_thread-mt.so.1.48.0()] !32bit!

Otherwise the report is really just duplicating half the information, ie
is twice as long as it needs to be.

3.
It could also be much nicer in a web page, perhaps with columns for
applies to (64 bit and 32 bit), and links to the git package source for
failing dependency package and the packages using it.

Having no internal knowledge of Fedora build stuff, I'm not volunteering
myself.
