 Replying to [comment:1 jkeating]:

 is that really the best idea?

 Well it's hardly "a ton" of packages, and they're quite small as packages
 go these days.

 The key points of the rebuild are to fix inefficient library linkage
 (undefined non-weak symbols, unused direct library dependencies) and to
 get the %{name}%{_isa} provides on the packages so that dependencies using
 %{?_isa} can be relied on to work on every release; there's also a missing
 dependency fixed in the imlib update (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/478357).

 Now I could do these builds against the existing packages in most cases
 but I'd rather "do the right thing" and build them in the right order so
 that everything's built on the latest package set. I'd also like to do a
 single update for each release in bodhi.
