i'm not sure this is strictly necessary. We can do it if it fixes an upgrade test or something, but both builds should be interchangeable. they have equivalent content.

Comment 2 Ray Strode [halfline] 2019-06-19 20:04:11 UTC
(midair collision with walters)

It is not about non-interchange changes, versions and patches are ok.
I believe it is not only about the test is self, but if "already newer pkg" as rpm think is installed the yum update will fail. I can try tomorrow.

Comment 4 Ray Strode [halfline] 2019-06-19 20:56:52 UTC
fwiw, i'm pretty sure we've allowed this kind of version skew in the past. see example 2 from https://mojo.redhat.com/docs/DOC-1001180 .  bar-2.4-4.el5 is built on the newest branch and bar-2.4-4.el5_8 is built on the z-stream.  this was okay because the developer did a git merge, so both builds had the same content.

Comment 5 Tomas Pelka 2019-06-20 07:50:25 UTC
OK you are right (as always) yum seems to simply skip glib2-2.56.1-4.el7 so the only one complaining is rpm. So now there is a question whether we still want to fix, on the other hand its something that is almost zero effort.
