F17 wants to auto-update LibreOffice URE-runtime when I've got Apache OpenOffice 3.4 installed

[Fernando Cassia]

I do not have LibreOffice installed on my system, I have Apache
OpenOffice 3.4 RC1.

However, launching the system updater notifies me that there is an
update available for URE-Runtime (a component of LibreOffice) and
proceeds to
install such update.

If this breaks Apache OpenOffice 3.4 who's to blame?.

Strange... here it is called libreoffice-ure, and should not get updated by
any OOo stuff. Perhaps there is something eles that uses it?

Whoever installed alien packages, methinks...

Both Fedora openoffice.org and the original upstream openoffice.org
ended up with a package called openoffice.org-ure. From various twists
and turns the Fedora -ure ended up with a 1 Epoch so all fedora -ure
packages are a higher n-v-r that the OOo one. Apache OOo has now
presumably got the same package names as well.

Fedora libreoffice has an upgrade path to update the Fedora
openoffice.org so it would attempt to upgrade anything called
openoffice.org-ure if installed.

Can block the libreoffice-ure in your yum.conf
