The obsoletes/provides for ant-trax have been there since August 2010 and
the obsoletes/provides for ant-nodeps have been there since January 2011.

The guidelines only mandate that obsoletes/provides have to stick around
for 2 releases of fedora before they can be removed so the ant package has
been quite generous to keep them around this long.
