gnome-backgrounds and gnome-backgrounds-extra should have Obsoletes: gnome-backgrounds

gnome-backgrounds should have Recommends: gnome-backgrounds-extra = %{version}-%{release}
Um, those recommendations seem to be the wrong way around, if anything?
Your *first* suggestion would fix problem #2: adding those obsoletes
would cause both packages to be installed on update of an existing
system with the old, 'combined' gnome-backgrounds. Your *second*
suggestion is not also necessary to solve problem #2...
