$ repoquery --whatprovides apel
apel-0:10.7-4.fc12.noarch
emacs-apel-0:10.8-1.fc14.noarch
apel-0:10.7-4.fc12.noarch
What do the other packages require a specific VR of apel?
Is that necessary or just too strict?
I believe it's just an artifact of the script that checks for requires;
if something else provides apel, we can drop the original apel package.
