Hi,

Quick question not found in the docs. There's a package with a -devel
subpackage. No package depends on this -devel and upstream removes the
development files in the new release, so I just dropped the -devel
subpackage.

Now, it's improbable, but if the old -devel subpackage was installed,
then "dnf upgrade" complains, obviously:
https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-f8c8592ad6

So the question is: should I add "Obsoletes: pkg-devel < $new_version"
to pkg's SPEC? Is this a proper use of "Obsoletes"?

Yes. Exactly a right thing to do.
