This indeed looks like a package rename, and so you must follow the package
rename procedure :
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_Renaming_Process.

Funnily enough, it appears that Petr is asking to coordinate with the package
maintainer, which happens to be him ;-) I'm co-maintainer in the Fedora
branches and maintainer for the EL5 branch (no sure why there's no EL6
branch...)

As Petr suggested, please update your spec to match the former
perl-Time-modules.spec. I'll take care of retiring perl-Time-modules from the
EL5 branch when perl-Time-ParseDate is ready and Petr will be the one to do the
retirement for the Fedora branches (One need 'approveacls' privileges to retire
a package).
Also, please keep me as a co-maintainer in all branches. I assume Petr wants to
be kept as (co-)maintainer too for the Fedora branches.
