I can review, but not co-maintain. (Un)fortunately, upstream provides
their own RPMs, which are... odd. You'll need to come up with a set of
Provides: and Obsoletes: and try to convince upstream to stop doing
their own and point to official Fedora repositories instead once it
passes review.
I was trying to decide if I would bother trying make the official packages
conflict with theirs, I think it may be more of a case of caveat emptor. In
the case of the libraries though, he appends a 0 to the package name. I'm
not sure what problems that would create.
