Description Paul Bolle 2012-04-03 09:29:34 UTC
Description of problem:
rpm's manpage doesn't mention the --obsoletes query-option.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.9.90-0.git11505.10.fc18

How reproducible:
n/a

Steps to Reproduce:
1. n/a
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
n/a

Expected results:
n/a

Additional info:
0) The --obsoletes query-option is defined in /usr/lib/rpm/rpmpopt-4.9.90. So are the --conflicts, --provides, and --requires query-options. These last three options are mentioned and documented in the manpage but the --obsoletes option isn't.

1) I'd be happy to provide the (trivial) patch to add the --obsoletes option to the manpage. I also don mind contacting upstream if needed. So feel free to ask me to submit a patch and to tell me where to submit it.
