discouraged but allowed as long as the conflicts are explicit.
Packages should not conflict, but when there is no other choice then
you must use Conflicts: to make the issue explicit.

time should a current Fedora package set have conflicts with itself.
Maybe that needs to be stated in the Conflicts page.
