How would you obsolete packages that use bluez4?  Isn't that a rough guess at
best?

My understanding is that the API change will break all the bluez4 apps.  How do
you manage that from a packaging perspective?  You need to block the upgrade if
any package depends on bluez4 and does _not_ have a bluez5 component to migrate
too.

Having a separate bluez5 package makes that simpler to handle.  I am not sure
what rpm magic we can add to keep it inside one package.  But I defer to those
who have been here before.  Perhaps obsoletes can work, I just can't see how.

Cheers,
Don
