 In a recent
 [http://autoqa.fedoraproject.org/results/82955-autotest/qa03.c.fedoraproject....
 test for mediawiki on f13], depcheck rejected the updated because it
 conflicted with pho-common.

The package conflicts with php-common because of a "Conflicts: php-common
 = 5.3.1" in the spec file for mediawiki starting with 1.16.2-56
 ([http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=mediawiki.git;a=blob;f=mediawiki.spe...
 current spec file])

I can't imagine that this is the only package with a "Conflicts:"
 declaration and I don't think that we should be just failing packages like
 that. Maybe the "Conflicts:" should be checked somewhere, I'm just
 thinking that it should be somewhere other than depcheck.

Comment:

Note that f13 has 5.3.1 in the release and 5.3.6 (ATM) in updates. The
 conflicts in mediawiki is a safeguard for users that haven't kept their
 system uptodate, but still try to install mediawiki from updates-stable.

E.g. if there are any conflicts/obsoletes etc. tests they should probably
 be against the pool of the current stable package set just like the
 dependency tests. Thanks!

(these are probably two different issues)
