During recent major version update, some files were moved from <package>-doc to <package>, and as a result updates of <package> fail due to a file conflict. Manual update of <package>-doc resolves this, of course.

A simple solution would be to declare that <package>

Required: package-doc >= 6.0.0

but that would force the install of the docs package if it wasn't already there.

Is there a way to declare a dependency only if the other package is present/installed? Would

Obsoletes: package-doc < 6.0.0

be the right thing to do?
