That's actually normal OBS behavior. The problem is there have been no
new rebuilds for a while because:

"nothing provides libgpgme-pth.so.11 needed by libkdepimlibs4, nothing
provides libgpgme-pth.so.11(GPGME_1.0) needed by libkdepimlibs4,
nothing provides libgpgme-pth.so.11(GPGME_1.1) needed by
libkdepimlibs4"

And this seems to be caused by the fact that the original libgpgme11
package from 11.4 provided libgpgme-pth.so.11
(https://build.opensuse.org/package/binary?arch=x86_64&filename=libgpgme11-1.3.0-12.1.x86_64.rpm&package=gpgme&project=openSUSE%3A11.4&repository=standard)
but the updated version from Tumbleweed doesn't
(https://build.opensuse.org/package/binary?arch=x86_64&filename=libgpgme11-1.3.1-22.1.x86_64.rpm&package=gpgme&project=openSUSE%3ATumbleweed&repository=standard).

So it's not a problem in Packman but in Tumbleweed itself... CC Greg.
