Imo,

Better to choose *1* of the new unison pkgs to Obsoletes the old one, using
something like:
Obsoletes: unison < %{version}-%{release}
Provides:  unison = %{version]-%{release}
presumably, putting this into the newer, unison227.

Better *yet* would've been to make unison213 only, and make the pkg unison =
version 227
