An example for "disbeliever" Tim: ;-)
jogl2-javadoc-2.0.2-1.fc21.noarch.rpm
Requires: jogl2 = 2.0.2-1.fc21
=> You cannot upgrade to the newer jogl2, if jogl2-javadoc is installed already.
$ yum list jogl2\*
[...]
Available Packages
jogl2.x86_64 2.2.4-3.fc21 updates
jogl2-doc.noarch 2.2.4-3.fc21 updates
jogl2-javadoc.noarch 2.0.2-1.fc21 fedora
Note that there are worse examples (e.g. plugins/extensions packages with
the strict dependency being an automatic one on a lib soname).
