Aha, thank you, that seems to be command I need. Since the usage was
not obvious to me I raised you a ticket to add a man-page containing
usage examples:

See: https://fedorahosted.org/packagedb-cli/ticket/17

However, I tried this on a package I own and I get a ServerError:

[mbooth at f17vm ~]$ pkgdb-cli update cobertura watchbugzilla java-sig all
FAS password:
ServerError(https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/dispatcher/set_acl_status,
500, Internal Server Error)

I am using packagedb-cli-1.2.1-1.fc17.noarch

Any more clues you can give me?
