this single test actively hinders to correctly release an important package (for me): hylafax+. Yup, one could argue, that using + in project names is somewhat silly, but it's exactly, what is needed here. HylaFAX is effectively forked by HylaFAX+. Now, the situation is unfortunate: hylafax is released with major version 4 and 6, while hylafax+ is released as 5. Keeping the name hylafax will replace the + version with the 6th version on certain occasions, and those, who follow both developments will agree, that this is the least desired. Either use one or the other but don't replace them vice versa, please.
Thanks for your notification, I've planned to put this check into rpmlint anyway, where this problem won't occur. I'll fix this for openSUSE Factory, is that good enough?
If this means, that I'm not able to stick the correct Provides: tag into my package, that would make me rather unhappy.. Would it take a big effort to apply a fix similar to the attached one to post-build-checks in order to get my package in shape correctly for 11.1 and probably 11.2 really soon now? May I branch/fix/sr post-build-checks in order to reduce your effort to the bare minimum? Cheers, Pete
