The tracker is just an intermediary here, it displays the output of the
britney tool. Thus that ought to be fixed at the britney level.
When britney says "ukui-system-monitor/ppc64el has unsatisfiable
dependency" it should say which dependency is unsatisfiable.
And if this appears in the excuses output, then the package tracker will
also display it.
Cheers,
