(Note that "F-15 -> F-16 upgrade path is broken" means that F15-updates git-1.7.6-1.fc15 contains git-arch subpackage and F-16 git-1.7.6-4.fc16 does not obsolete this)
Yeah, I noticed this only after the update finally was pushed in bodhi (thanks to the autoqa checks). I'll build another update which includes: # Obsolete git-arch as needed %if ! %{arch_support} Obsoletes: git-arch <= %{version}-%{release} %endif I believe that should do what we want, and allow f15 to continue to ship git-arch and still receive future git version bumps.
