In fedora, easily. In RHEL, I still don't know if it is done, but I filled a bug. (In both case, Jindrich is the maintainer, but it seems that changing something in RHEL is much more complicated). > I was just planning to make my package require Python >= 2.3 and <= > 2.5.

If your package is for EL-5, then having the obsolete in RHEL6 shouldn't be impossible, since if it is in fedora, it should be inherited by RHEL6 package, if it branches from a a fedora package with the obsolete. -- Pat _______________________________________________ epel-devel-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/epel-devel-list
