This sort of  a situation where you conflict with Core's update path
should be avoided. it would have been best if you had communicated
with the Core maintainer of libgst before you went ahead and made
libgsf113 in fe-devel.  Did you try to contact the Core maintainer of
libgsf before deciding to create this additional package?

Since this only affects development I'm not sure its appropriate to
have Core place an obsoletes, but that's something for Core to
determine.
