Same for me.
This whole stuff is too awkward to be done right.

With the various repositories of the openSUSE build service there is
no such thing as one known "LATEST_AVAILABLE_VERSION_WITH_NAME_PAC".

To be more on the safe side regarding whatever third-party packages
form whatever third-party repositories I would use

Provides:   pac = %{version}
Obsoletes:  pac < %{version}

so that it would silently replace any older "pac" from any repository.


Kind Regards
