Feeling dumb (again...) I have a package which I now need to split into subpackages. [cut] Does this help? http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/__Upgrade_paths_%E2%80%94___renaming_or_splitting_packages <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrade_paths_%E2%80%94_renaming_or_splitting_packages> No, not really. My case is really the one-to-many case, probably to simple to be mentioned in that doc (?) You can use the n to m case, with n = 1. What the doc says is that you create an empty -compat subpackage, that obsoletes your previous package and that requires your new subpackages. After one release cycle you add again your old name and obsolete the -compat package. That's what I understand, at least
Ahh... that should actually work! Thanks, and sorry for not reading that link once more before my first reply!
