Is there any prospect for checking dependencies in EPEL packages before
pushing them to the repo, or at least a regular report (like the Fedora
report that somebody runs)?

Somebody just pointed out over on the RHEL 5 list that vpnc now depends
on upstart, which isn't even available for RHEL (either from RH or in
EPEL).  It would be nice if such packages didn't make the repo, but at
least finding them after the fact and reporting would be a start.

I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
