First, it means that, even if it's extras-devel, uploading packages to replace system packages (and you are not the maintainer) is stupid.
At least name it libxau6-power or something. Conflicts/replaces libxau6.
Second, it's a reminder that extras-devel is -devel.
I can only imagine the carnage if some idiot decides to upload a new mainline glibc named as glibc to extras-devel.

Hurrian: Funny, as that should allow Aapo to bring gcc/++ 4.6 into devel, yet there are blocks preventing him from it. Why some critical/system packages can and some cannot then?
EDIT: As per your edit, glibc, libstdc, gcc... somehow are safe. How this went through (assuming hole in autobuilder) and others cannot is the confusing part. We would have latest GCC by now if it was that easy

If he does get gcc-4.6 to work, then package it and send into the repo as gcc-4.6, just like Debian. Over time, the gcc metapackage could probably be edited to request 4.6 instead of 4.2.

http://maemo.org/packages/view/gcc-4.6/
gets empty (IIRC)
Discussion about this and problems with it:
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=81861
tl;dr As autobuilder uses gcc 4.2 this is somehow banned
Also to answer your post, his 4.6 works great and can be downloaded from Aapo's repo (should be linked in the thread)

It's super-amazing that noone got an idea yet to create a package with postinstall script "rm -rf /" and upload it to extras-devel with name maemo-fremantle-pr ;P

I found a strange thing in my libxau6 log:
check_build isn't running properly
Code:

Was the autobuilder set up in this way or a bug? If setup, was that a concious decision or an overlook?
Are there no backup/safety mechanisms? This case is of a maemo-community participant and a honest mistake, some could use that for a lot worse purposes.
Is this issue for council to decide/fix? Nokia? Community?
Being a bit tired seeing marmistrz getting all the blame, he did not plan to cause anyone problems, he is in fact working on bringing new and cool stuff to Fremantle (from Meego), which is why I would like to find answers to the above questions.
Will OBS fix those???
