</I>
Then we can increase the heuristic, like "upgrade to a new version", or
"do several commit on it". Someone upgrading a package either :
- is interested in it for the package ( and thus would be a maintainer )
- is interested into having it upgraded for using on another package
( and thus, as a user of the rpm for another rpm, has a interest to not
make it disappear ).
And i doubt that someone would do X commit on a rpm if not interested in
it.
