No, it works like Requires or Provides or anything else. If you don't
version the obsolete it will obsolete any package of this name. So
foobar-1.0-1fc11 with a line:

Obsoletes: oldfoo

will obsolete oldfoo-2.0-1fc11, or oldfoo-1.0-15fc11, or oldfoo-
*anything*.

That's why obsoletes ought to be versioned (something like Obsoletes:
oldfoo < 1.0-1), so that they don't come back to bite you in future -
for instance, if the name changes back.
