I read this thread and
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=609224 and I see two
reasonable solutions for this problem:

1. Add Obsoletes/Provides libjpeg directly to libjpeg-turbo package
which contains only libjpeg.so.62*. I believe this will solve both
update and buildroot problems. However it also means all users of
libjpeg programs (djpeg, cjpeg and friends) will need to manually
install libjpeg-turbo-tools

2. Merge both libjpeg-turbo-utils and libjpeg-turbo to one package, as
done in libjpeg.

I must admit I like the first solution. People usually needs only
libjpeg.so, not programs. People which need libjpeg programs can
easily install libjpeg-turbo-tools package themselves, this
"incompatibility" seems acceptable for me in development branch.

What is your opinion about this proposal?

Regards, Adam
