Hmm, as matter of fact, current spec provides %{_bindir}/yq, just as bug
#2074467 package. So they will conflict once passed both. In order to both be
installable on single system, at least one of them need to rename the
conflicting binary.

A way around that would be using alternatives subsystem, where both could
provide the same name and user would choose a preferred one. But that would
require interchangable parameters, at least to some extent.

I don't remember my exact workflow when creating the package. I think I haven't
used any tool to create spec file, but used existing package as a template with
manual changes.

I have found OpenSUSE rpm spec at
https://build.opensuse.org/projects/devel:languages:python/packages/python-yq/files/python-yq.spec?expand=1

I am not confident lowering of explicit requirements would be safe without
using it that first. I think such lowering should happen only for older
releases, if any.

Yes, I would like to finish this review.
