For the public record (I mentioned the same on the submit request): Repo checker is right.
The packaging guidelines about 'merging packages' was not adhered to:

Once this is adhered to, r-c won't complain and let this package pass. OK. So I should revoke this request.
Is it OK if I modify packages this way?
Provides: libevtlog0 = 0.2.13 Obsoletes: libevtlog0 <= 0.2.13 This one no: the right thing here is to also split libevtlog0 in the new souece package (syslog-ng), according to the shared library

But why, if no other package is using it? (history: originally it was developed as a generic logging library for RFC 5424 syslog, but as actually syslog-ng was the only user for many years, it was merged) Bye, CzP
and:
Provides: libevtlog-devel = 0.2.13 Obsoletes: libevtlog-devel <= 0.2.13 This one yes; alternatively you could also split out a libevtlog-devel package out of the syslog-ng source build; but since there is no consumer (yet?) this might be overkill
