argh. i just checked the development repos for both i386 and x86_64,
and they both now have a newer version (".2") of libsmbios, which
allegedly handles obsoletes correctly. so i remove the cached earlier
libsmbios package (".1") from my x86_64 system, run "yum update", and
yum is *still* downloading and trying to install the earlier (wrong)
version.
grrrrrrr ......
