This is now fixed and built. I think the actual NVRs are less so its
likely it won't be pulled in. I'll fix that soon so I would wait.

All of those should be now fixed.

Also I'm in the process of importing 4500 packages that are noarch so
they don't need to be rebuilt. So there's going to be a lot of churn
very soon but it should get us a lot closer. I'll look at doing the
same for updates soon too, just need to check what the deps and other
possible issues would be in doing that.

I've also untagged all packages that have a newer NVR.

I'll let you know when it all settles as at that point its likely
worth while cutting another release and comparing the change in
packages.
