	See:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=134130

	Turns out that because ORBit2 doesn't really obsolete linc (i.e. it
doesn't export the linc API, just uses it internally) I was being
terribly naughty by using Obsoletes: linc to make linc be removed on
update.

	Minor blip. Today's rawhide should be healed. Humble apologies and all
that :-)

Cheers,
Mark.
