Okay, I'll note that.  When we merge the packagedb and koji post-F7, we
might be able to have the best of both worlds:: When we update the
database create a "job" to update bugzilla.  A cron job can grab all
pending jobs and update bugzilla with the new information.

BTW, if anyone's interested in working on this, the script is
bz-make-components.py in fedora-accounts::
