OK so I came to check out perl-Math-BigInt-GMP from CVS and found that it was
already there. Steven Pritchard is the owner of the package and it was reviewed
in Bug #447191. I missed it because I checked for its existence using "yum
install 'perl(Math::BigInt::GMP)'" on my Fedora 9 box and there were no
matching packages. Steven has built it for Fedora 10/devel (at the time) but
not F-9, and there's no point building it for anything older, though there are
branches for F-8, EL-4, and EL-5.

It would appear that my new package request has made me the owner of the devel,
F-10, and F-9 branches. What to do about this? Steven, shall we co-maintain
this?

There may also be an issue to consider in the package database in that I was
able to "take over" this package by accident, which probably should have been
blocked.
