That's from the CentOS-6 - Base repo. I can't exactly get rid of that
one. :) But it's not really the issue.
If I install something that has a dependency on postgresql-libs, I can
install postgresql9x-libs and the dependency is satisfied.
If something depends on postgresql-odbc, it is *not* satisfied by
installing postgresql9x-odbc.
My question is whether there's a reason for that. For the RPM we're
creating, we don't necessarily want to dictate exactly what version of
psql(-odbc) people are installing, as long as it fits the requirements.
It seems there's no way to do that.
Thanks,
Jeremiah
