Yes, they have been correct, but they are aging. For fipscheck, the Obsoletes don't work anymore for packages in Fedora 16 and onwards, starting with a build from Fedora 15: fipscheck-0:1.3.0-2.fc15.i686 isn't obsoleted fipscheck < 0:1.2.0-1 obsoleted by fipscheck-lib-0:1.3.1-4.fc20.i686 Hence the 2nd list I've created is called "dubious". For openssl, it's Fedora 18 and onwards, so the Obsoletes still cover something in F17 and F16. No worries. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
