Hi,

I've got openoffice-1.0 installed on my 9.2 system.  RHEL provides
openoffice in two set of packages which changed names during the rhel
release cycle.  In particular, RHEL provides "openoffice-1.0.2" in the
base system, but changed the name to "openoffice.org-1.1.0" in the
updates system.  Unfortunately the Athena update system doesn't
understand the name change and therefore wont properly update my
packages from 1.0.2 to 1.1.0.
