That bug is a good example. It's a PITA. And, it will never get fixed.
The implicit obsoletes kills a lot of attempts to stay away from Core
packages. I tried to not touch the python package, but, I threw up my
arms after trying for along time. So, you win some and you lose some.
rpm is the wrong component for this bug because it is behaving as
designed. Why have you not asked the general python maintainers at Red
Hat like misa, katzj or pjones instead? Maybe you have... but I see no
comments from them in this ticket.
Communication problem?
