--- Comment #9 from Petr Pisar <[email protected]> --- Michaeal, you are mixing two independent things. One is conflict, which is here regardless any possible replacement. You can never know user's package set (e.g. upgrading into stable distribution will bring perl without the Obsoletes). If the conflict is there, it should be declared. It's much friendly to hit the problem sooner while solving dependencies than any later on file system level. Other one is replacement. In this case there is possible replacement. But this is only hint for dependency solver to select better choice. I'm really sorry yum is so archaic it cannot offer more solutions as other package managers can. But this not excuse to sweep known conflicts under the carpet. Especially in this case where it does not make things worse as you already pointed. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
