Unfortunately, it looks like Nokia has decided to rename the Aegis

Gitorious being renamed.  Is the procedure here that I create a bug
stating that the package names are incorrect and that I go through, create
new packages with the new names, fix the yaml and spec files and submit to
testing or is there something else that we do for renaming a project?
Please use obsoletes in the spec/yaml to make update work correctly.
This is what it is for.

yup

one minute thing; if you use obsoletes, please use a versioned obsoletes, like

Obsoletes: foo <= 4.23-2

the reason for this is that if you do a "naked" obsoletes like

Obsoletes: foo

you can never ever go back or use another package with that name, while if it's versioned then the obsoletes is bounded...
