Just wondering: would it be fine for EPEL to ship for example
mysql-connector-odbc under a different name
("mysql-connector-odbc-epel")? Then we would not replace packages from
layered products, just provide something (without support) that's also
provided by a layered product (which has support).
That depends on how comfortable you are letting EPEL be a way to bypass
a product requirement essentially. If it is for libraries it might still
be required and useful for other reasons but what about say fedora
directory server in EPEL?
