It might actually be unnecessary but not for that reason. 1.50 exists only in F-21/Rawhide at the moment and the obsoletes is necessary for people who upgrade from F-20 to F-21 so that functionality doesn't just disappear on yum upgrade. But why it actually could be considered unnecessary is that simply installing the pkix package (which is what the Obsoletes would accomplish) is almost never enough to keep software from breaking; classpath adjustments will be required as well. This is by the way a big reason why 1.50 should not be pushed to earlier distros than F-21/Rawhide. In addition to that, there are also quite a few API incompatibilities in 1.46 compared to 1.50 (as the author of Portecle, a piece which uses BouncyCastle APIs quite extensively I happen to be painfully aware of this). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
