The packages I linked to earlier already do it, actually. It mostly just
involves using some Epochs and being careful with the obsoletes. I
already had to do this for Mandriva a few months back. I tested, and the
packages Andreas built work fine - if you install all rawhide opensync
packages then enable his test packages as a repository (the directory's
set up as a yum repo), then do 'yum update', it all works as it should
do.

I think Andreas was just waiting on my testing and possibly a few tweaks
before pushing it, but I wouldn't want to speak too far on his behalf.
