The numbers look even worse today, but the actual situation is better
than the numbers imply.
Looks like abf doesn't delete old packages that were imported from
abf.io (because we had no way to sync the database), so repoclosure
screams about e.g. llvm 3.7 dependencies in creduce-2.4.0-1 even though
creduce-2.4.0-2 (which has been adapted to llvm 3.8) is already there.
I'll build a script to take care of that sort of thing.
Also, some of the stuff it complains about is really obscure stuff that
should really move to contrib (e.g. directfb - while I've fixed it, the
upstream project doesn't even exist anymore).

Agreed. We need to make sure people get the message that this is not
"yet another boring distro release".
