So if we have moin15 (which obsoletes moin < 1.5.9) and moin 1.9.1 in 
the repo at the same time, and an existing user of moin 1.5.x does a 
"yum update", what happens?

1. The "obsolete" takes precedence and they get moin15, or

2. The update happens first and they get moin 1.9.1?

I don't know off the top of my head.

Paul.
