If the old one is still there then it still obsoletes tracker.
So if I have packages A and B, where B obsoletes A. Now there is a rpm-newer
version of B (B-new) in another repo (updates) which no longer obsoletes A.
So as long as B exists anywhere I can not install A using yum, because
yum still considers the obsolete from B, even though it is no longer relevant
in any way?
When I was working on the obs vs updates code I kept asking about this.
The answer I repeatedly got was that obsoletes trumps updates no matter
what.
Was there a reason given for this? What breaks if it's the other way around?
