Anybody who has run a yum update will have emacs-muse (or whatever) installed and not have the muse package anymore. In FC-6 since the emacs-muse package there will NOT obsolete/provide muse, the music muse will install just fine, but probably should have an epoch just in case someone installed FC-3/4/5 muse and never did a yum update after the namespace change. They will end up with music muse replacing the emacs package, which they may not want - but there's a lot of time between now and FC-6. Did the music muse need to get into FC5? If so, is it possible to obsolete muse < 1:n.n.n w/ no provides? I know that would give rpmlint errors, I don't know if you can limit an obsoletes to less than an epoch or not. -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
