Packager introduces change in package name without reason and against FPG rules.

Current situation:

dnf repoquery --whatrequires gegl04

gegl04-devel-0:0.4.4-1.fc29.i686
gegl04-devel-0:0.4.4-1.fc29.x86_64
gegl04-devel-docs-0:0.4.4-1.fc29.x86_64
gegl04-tools-0:0.4.4-1.fc29.x86_64
gimp-2:2.10.4-1.fc29.x86_64
gimp-gap-0:2.7.0-19.GITb17f908.fc29.x86_64
gimp-libs-2:2.10.4-1.fc29.i686
gimp-libs-2:2.10.4-1.fc29.x86_64
gnome-photos-0:3.29.3-1.fc29.x86_64
libmypaint-0:1.3.0-8.fc29.i686
libmypaint-0:1.3.0-8.fc29.x86_64
ufraw-gimp-0:0.22-13.fc29.x86_64

dnf -C repoquery --whatrequires gegl

gegl-devel-0:0.2.0-39.fc29.i686
gegl-devel-0:0.2.0-39.fc29.x86_64
gegl-operations-workshop-0:0.2.0-39.fc29.x86_64

As it is possible to see packager introduces gegl package name on SONAME change when none of the the other packages requires gegl 0.2.x.

None of the rules described on https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Naming?rd=Packaging:NamingGuidelines allows do this.


Why is this filled for FPC? Packaging committee takes care only about guidelines. Please open a bug against component on bugzilla.

Please, close this, due in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1580108 has been described reasons for this state in f28 and gegl package will be removed from f29, so only gegl04 will be available.

So it is nothiong wrong with change package name only because SONAME has been changed?
Where I can find anything about this in FPG?
Is it any plan to introduce Debian like packages naming convention in Fedora?

PS. What will take care of remove gegl from set installed packages?

Please, resolve this elsewhere.
