Or rather, what leads you to believe that it is not currently possible?Yes, it is possible. You just need to pick different names for packages that contain these libraries. That's something that is not going to change, as we would need to redesign huge chunks of the entire rpm stack. I've answered it already; quoting my own email: Q: Can't a packager do it already? Why propose it as a 'proposal'? It is possible, but it'll need package reviews for each new version. Also, it should be probably added to packaging guidelines for library packaging as the default/recommended method (including the possible issues that might need attention, as stated in the other reply).
