https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/GuidelinesAndPolicies#Conflicts_in_compat_packages
"""Due to the EPEL policy of maintaining backwards compatibility, EPEL has a
greater need for forward compat packages than Fedora. When creating, a compat
package, note that it is okay to set a Conflicts between them as noted in the
Conflicts Guidelines. At this time, this is only allowed for packages overriding
packages in EPEL, not in RHEL Base."""
What does "RHEL Base" mean in this context?
Is it everything listed in
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/FAQ#Does_EPEL_replace_packages_provided_within_Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux_or_layered_products.3F
?
What does "At this time" mean? Can an exception be requested for this?
