Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
lazarus x86_64 1.6-0.2.RC1.fc24

How reproducible:
If you install lazarus from the rpm the lazarus website (http://sourceforge.net/projects/lazarus/files/Lazarus%20Linux%20x86_64%20RPM/Lazarus%201.6/) dnf tries to replace it with the older release from the repos because it is considered newer.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download and install lazarus from here (http://sourceforge.net/projects/lazarus/files/Lazarus%20Linux%20x86_64%20RPM/Lazarus%201.6/)

2. do an update

sudo dnf update

Possible solution: update lazarus to 1.6 in the repo
Comment 1 Joost van der Sluis 2017-02-01 10:56:13 UTC 
In principle updating the package does not solve the underlying problem that the Fedora packages have an higher number then the upstream packages. But that is mainly due to the invalid version-number of the upstream packages.

We can not solve that, though.
