Announcement here:

But I'm not writing to bug about packaging it. I was more interested by this
section of the release note:
-----
This release also include the Industrial theme engine from
Novell/Ximian, this means g-t-e binary packages package will get a
install conflict with the ximian-artwork package for user who use Ximian
GNOME. We recomend that people who use Ximian GNOME and creates a RPM
from this tarball install g-t-e using --force. Long term we hope that
Ximian will split industrial out of ximian-artwork so we can have our
RPM obsolete it.
-----

Is this something that should/could be done at the package level for the Mdk
distro? Both mentioned packages are part of contrib, and both maintained by
the same person. Maybe separating the engine into a separate (and hopefully
temporary) package?

G�tz, is this possible without too much pain? Or is it better to simply put
a notice in the package descriptions about the conflict?
