To be completely fair, I don't actually know EPEL policy here. The rule
is that you can't conflict with RHEL packages, but SRPMs aren't really
installed the same way as other packages and whether or not they would
install to the same location depends somewhat on your personal .rpmrc.
As far as I know, this is the adopted policy [1]. Though, I'm not
sure if that was ever made official since it's still on a user page. I
couldn't find anything that specifically says SRPM names can't be the
same and it seems like that is not the process for additional
architecture packages. [2] They just use a leading 0 in the release, ex:
foobar-1.0-0.1.
I'm curious if anyone else has any insight. Maybe it is worth bringing up at a FPC meeting.[1] https://fedoraproject.org/
