Thanks to Kevin and Mattia for being careful here! But looking at the
packages, it seems not quite so clear-cut. These are Java packages;
they don't build traditional shared libraries with sonames. Looking at
the new modello package, it provides these:

modello = 2.0.0-1.fc37
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-core) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-core:pom:) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-maven-plugin) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-maven-plugin:pom:) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugin-converters) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugin-converters:pom:) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugin-dom4j) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugin-dom4j:pom:) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugin-java) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugin-java:pom:) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugin-jdom) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugin-jdom:pom:) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugin-sax) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugin-sax:pom:) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugin-stax) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugin-stax:pom:) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugin-xdoc) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugin-xdoc:pom:) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugin-xml) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugin-xml:pom:) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugin-xpp3) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugin-xpp3:pom:) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugin-xsd) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugin-xsd:pom:) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-plugins:pom:) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-test) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-test:pom:) = 2.0.0
mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello:pom:) = 2.0.0

note, no libraries, no sonames. So this is more like a major version
bump to a Python package, for e.g., than a new soname for a shared
library.

If any other package explicitly required e.g.
"mvn(org.codehaus.modello:modello-core) < 2.0.0" it will now not be
installable. If any other package did not explicitly have such a
requirement, but actually does not work properly with modello 2.0.0,
it'll still be installable, but won't work properly until it's adapted.

It would still be best practice to actually figure out how the
dependent packages will be affected by the version bump before landing
it in Rawhide, however the relevant maintainers want to do that.
