Yes, this R is useless if package is built with older libX11.
Issue is more global - every application/library that uses X11's
GetReq and similar macros starts to require libX11 >= 1.4.99
when it's built with libX11 >= 1.4.99.
and it's more global than this: this happens to be the case with other
gnomeish libs as well: glib, gtk+2....
it has been addressed earlier with upstream (by patrys), to make soname
versions, but upstream declined that plan for gtk+2/gtk+3
sorry no links to mailinglist, or samples or other libs, but i'm sure
the topic itself is not new.
could this be addressed by rpm side?
%requires_eq is not the solution i'm seeking, as that would cause
pointless rebuilds and upgrades if nothing has changed between versions.
