Exactly. (Indeed, as noted, in this case the depcheck test somehow
appears to see the broken deps, but report the result as PASSED. I'm not
just whistlin' Dixie, you know. I believe John Dulaney is still working
on v2 of depcheck, with the help of tflink.)

I think it's a reasonable note that if you're pushing a major update of
a significant and complex package, leaving auto-push enabled with a
threshold of +3 is perhaps not the best idea. Packagers, remember: the
Bodhi defaults are just that, *defaults*. They aren't necessarily
appropriate for every update. Do remember to use your judgement.
