 apel has just been renamed to emacs-apel because of the
 naming guidelines. the above packages has to be rebuilt
 against emacs-apel instead of apel.

When renaming a package you would normally add a good Obsoletes/Provides
pair for the old name and drop that only after an appropriate period of
time (e.g. 2-3 dist releases). Has that been done for apel?

$ repoquery --whatprovides apel
apel-0:10.7-4.fc12.noarch
emacs-apel-0:10.8-1.fc14.noarch
apel-0:10.7-4.fc12.noarch

What do the other packages require a specific VR of apel?
Is that necessary or just too strict?

I believe it's just an artifact of the script that checks for requires;
if something else provides apel, we can drop the original apel package.
