Isn't it worth maintaining compatibility with previous fedora.us
(aka,soon-to-be Fedora Extras) releases?
Maintaining compatibility with upstream seems more efficient.
Else, at least please add
Obsoletes: flac-libs <= %epoch:%version
Provides: flac-libs = %epoch:%version
This is the same as trying to obsolete say, random Ximian packages.
It's a slippery slope I'd prefer not to be on.
