config(net-snmp-cmaX) = 5.1-83
libnetsnmp.so.5
libnetsnmpagent.so.5
libnetsnmphelpers.so.5
libnetsnmpmibs.so.5
libnetsnmptrapd.so.5
libsnmp.so.5
net-snmp
snmpd
snmptrapd
net-snmp-cmaX = 5.1-83

version number? If it provided net-snmp = 5.1-83, would my obsoletes
work as planned?
I hate HP's RPMs! :(
