I was trying to upgrade (using rpm -U --force) from the products of
ImageMagick-5.3.6-3mdk.src.rpm to 5.3.6-5mdk, rebuilt from cooker SRPM. I get
an error message from rpm, saying that the old ImageMagick-devel-5.3.6-3mdk
still needs ImageMagick-5.3.6-3mdk. I guess that was wrong in the old
package, since the development package should really only need the library,
and not the application? The new package has a better name for the
development package. Should the %{libname}-devel both provide %{name}-devel
and also obsolete %{name}-devel? That seems to work without error.
