Lillian, Adel,

Since release 6.5-2 all netbeans-platform8* packages are obsolete.

According to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/ProvidesObsoletes
"If a package supersedes/replaces an existing package without being a
compatible enough replacement as defined in above, use only the Obsoletes from
above."
Of course, the document is draft only, but I think it establishes right point
that is applicable for this case.
All the packages, including netbeans-platform, netbeans-platform-harness and
netbeans-platform-javadoc, are *not compatible replacements* for corresponding
netbeans-platform8* packages. Therefore, I don't use the "Provides" clause for
all these packages.

The next release is prepared.
Spec URL: http://victorv.fedorapeople.org/files/netbeans-platform.spec
SRPM URL:
http://victorv.fedorapeople.org/files/netbeans-platform-6.5-4.fc11.src.rpm

Changes:
--------

- All %post and %preun scriplets are removed. Creation of the .noautoupdate
files is completely provided in the %install section. All .noautoupdate files
are listed in the corresponding %files sections, so RPM will take care about
deleting the files during erasing of the packages.

rpmlint results:
----------------

Results are the same as mentioned above, but, of course, there are 3 additional
warnings:
- netbeans-platform.noarch: W: obsolete-not-provided netbeans-platform8
- netbeans-platform-harness.noarch: W: obsolete-not-provided
netbeans-platform8-harness
- netbeans-platform-javadoc.noarch: W: obsolete-not-provided
netbeans-platform8-javadoc
