</div>There's phonon-backend-gst which is supposed to obsolete that pkg<br>
(if the Obsoletes/Provides tags in it are correct).<br>
<br>
The rawhide broken deps checker cannot detect this as it no longer sees<br>
the old phono-backend-gstreamer. (and I think the repoclosure version that<br>
is used doesn't handle obsoletes yet anyway)<br>
