Not really.  Conflicts should be explicit if they exist.

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Conflicts

"Whenever possible, Fedora packages should avoid conflicting with each

illustrate how conflicts should be handled in Fedora, specifically
concerning when and when not to use the Conflicts: field."
