On an EL6 machine, I've built a package "foo-bar" and it's intended to replace any already installed "bar" package on any machines it's installed on so I put an: Obsoletes: bar in foo-bar.spec and it seems to have been added to the resulting package: # rpm -q --obsoletes -p foo-bar-1.1-1.el6.noarch.rpm bar # rpm -ivh foo-bar-1.1-1.el6.noarch.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:foo-bar ########################################### [100%] # rpm -q bar bar-1.0-1.el6.noarch So why didn't the "Obsoletes: bar" remove "bar"? Cheers, b.
