I think that we're anticipating that the packager is going to do different
things.  When I read the quote, I'm imagining that he is going to be
releasing the new datanommer package together with the new
python-datanommer-models package.  Which would mean the packagest available
in the yum updates repository shouldn't have any conflicts between the two
packages (because the Conflicts is versioned).
