Their i18n message object files conflict, and it would be wrong to delete them and only ship the libs. It's just another problem which can be fixed, but which makes creating such compat- or libfooMAJVER- packages less easy. -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
