Hallo.

To provide a solution for branding packages, I need a conflict, where
any of foo-branding-myvendor packages conflicts with any of all other
packages with name foo-branding-*.

All these packages provide the same files, but the complete list of
packages, which will provide it, is not known in time of packaging.

For example:
gimp-branding-openSUSE will conflict with gimp-branding-SLED.
But both have to conflict with gimp-branding-Flocke,
gimp-branding-Flower or gimp-branding-Spring, which may be created by a
third party. And each of them has to conflict with each another.

There are two recent ideas:

1) Each of them will provide and conflict with gimp-branding
It works in libzypp (self conflicts are ignored), but break in rpm
level.
[Bug 379338] weird package conflict related to kdebase4-workspace-branding
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=379338


2) Do nothing. It works in rpm (file conflicts are sufficient), but does
not work in libzypp.

Is there any other solution for this problem?
