For the record,  lamson was dropped due to

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=972251

Lamson was originally packaged for askbot which powers
http://ask.fedoraproject.org but it is a optional dependency for a
functionality we don't use in Fedora infrastructure. I have now retired the
dependent packages as well.  It might be feasible to replace it with a fork

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/salmon-mail/0

If anyone is interested, you are very welcome to do that.  fedpkg retire
threw up the following similar error for the two dependent packages but
seems to have done the process anyway

No collection found by the name of devel
Could not retire package: Command '['pkgdb-cli', 'orphan', '--retire',
'funnel', 'devel']' returned non-zero exit status 8
