Yes, because it is currently uninstallable because of a, IMO, a bug on the resolvers' side (but I plan to workaround it, don't worry) as there _is_ a solution. No, because the conflict is there to avoid installing readahead-fedora together with whatever other readahead implementation you may choose to install (say sreadahead, ureadahead, etc; they all provide 'readahead'). The current workaround on the users side is to install the *real* package, not the transitional one. That is, install readahead-fedora or upgrade from readahead, but don't install readahead.
