It doesnt have to provide 1:1 functionality for one package to obsolete 
another. It almost never does. Any RPM package can obsolete any others 
in fact. Like I said this was done long back. If you want the old 
tracker back, you know what to do.

What exactly doesnt make sense? Calling a new package "pine" is a non 
starter. If you want to seriously suggest a rename, get on the tracker 
list and do that.

It is not *just a database*. It uses a database.
