Not sure I understand the question. Is package currently installed (rpm -q)? If yes, what is the problem with removing it?
I have not tried to simulate this in practice, what would happen is: If ffmpeg-devel is installed it Requires libavcodec-devel = version. If ffmpeg is updated to the next version then 'libavcodec-devel = version', required by ffmpeg-devel, does not exist anymore. As a result the update of the entire ffmpeg related packages is blocked.
