Odd, I looked it up on rpmfind.net and recent versions of
redhat-config-printer do not actually require LPRng. redhat-config-printer
does conflict with older versions of LPRng (Bugzilla bug 92145), which is
why cups "provides" a recent version of LPRng, but I can't find any reason
why it should provide LPRng in the first place. Anyway, I better take this
discussion to Red Hat bugzilla. Would still like to know if removing the
"Provides: LPRng" would make the package properly upgrade over LPRng,
though.
