Both these packages merely provide an ELF library. As such anything that
depends on them should have automatically gained a Requires against the
SONAME of the contained library - 'libminizip.so.3.0()(64bit)' (for minizip)
vs 'libminizip.so.1()(64bit)' (for minizip-compat).

As such it shouldn't matter what the actual package name is, any dep will
continue to resolve to the correct renamed package at install time.

The only significant impact of the rename should be on BuildRequires
which could end up pulling in the wrong version, but presumably if
the API is different that ought to resolve in a koji build failure
which is easy enough to identify and fix the BuildRequires.

With regards,
Daniel
