Log:
[cleanup] Remove dead 'Conflicts: iodbc' from spec
This line was present from the very first spec import (commit fc5859a,
'unixODBC-1.8.12-2.src.rpm', Preston Brown, Jun 2000 — Red Hat Linux
"Winston" era). No comment was ever attached explaining the reason.
The conflict existed because in 2000 both packages shipped:
- Config files via '%config %{_sysconfdir}/*' (catching '/etc/odbcinst.ini'
and '/etc/odbc.ini')
- Standard ODBC headers ('sql.h', 'sqlext.h', 'sqltypes.h') directly
in '/usr/include/'
- An ODBC driver manager library under the same soname
Since then, 'libiodbc' has been restructured to avoid all collisions:
- Different sonames: 'libiodbc.so.2' vs 'libodbc.so.2'
- Different binaries: 'iodbctest'/'iodbctestw' vs 'isql'/'odbcinst'
- Namespaced headers: '/usr/include/libiodbc/' vs '/usr/include/'
- Different pkg-config: 'libiodbc.pc' vs 'odbc.pc'
- No config files shipped by 'libiodbc' at all
On top of that, the Conflicts targets the package name 'iodbc', but
iODBC has been packaged as 'libiodbc' for years with no
'Provides: iodbc'. The line is a no-op — it conflicts with a package
name that does not exist in Fedora.
'libiodbc' has never declared a reciprocal Conflicts on 'unixODBC'.
