Hi folks, I'm the RPM packager for SpamAssassin. Our "official" spec file makes 3 RPMs, but for this discussion only two are important: spamassassin and perl-Mail-SpamAssassin. The latest version/release of the RPMs are 2.61-1. The problem I've found is that the latest official RedHat RPM (single, just "spamassassin") is version 2.55 and includes an "Obsoletes: perl-Mail-SpamAssassin" line. This leads to problems where people install my RPMs, then when they do an "up2date" or some such, they end up being told to upgrade from 2.61 to 2.55, which obviously is wrong. The question is: how do I get that Obsoletes trumped by something in my spec file? I've tried using Epoch (a suggestion I got from a few people), but that seems to be used more for non-numeric versions than what I'm trying to do. Any thoughts?
