ruby-pg.i386: W: obsolete-not-provided ruby-postgres
If a package is obsoleted by a compatible replacement, the obsoleted package
should also be provided in order to not cause unnecessary dependency breakage.
If the obsoleting package is not a compatible replacement for the old one,
leave out the Provides.

This is all I still see.  What it means is that this package Obsoletes another
but does not Provide it.  If this package is to replace ruby-postgres, you need

Obsoletes: ruby-postgres <= the current fedora version of that pacakge
Provides: ruby-postgres

And to do 

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/PackageEndOfLife

for ruby-postgres, or in this case have the owner do it.

If it is not meant to replace it, remove the Obsoletes.

What about the header files in ext?
