Re: [Rdo-list] Why use yum priority in rdo-release repo file?

Simple example: we're using Django14 in RDO, whereas EPEL has
both, and
the same versions.
yum prioritizes packages with shorter names, thus would install Django
instead of Django14. (version 1.3 vs. 1.4).
This looks like a bad Requires: line in the RDO packaging. Yum wont
install Django 1.3 when your baseline Requires: >= 1.4 and Django14
should provide Django = 1.4
priorities are harsh in the way it handles and removes stuff from the
pkgsack, but dont blame it for bad packaging.
