[~vkadlcik] said that it is because rh-eclipse46-devstudio offers some package which rh-eclipse46 needs, so yum decides to use devstudio as library.

He said that the best practice for end-user application like rh-eclipse46-devstudio is to have less amount of stuff in "rpm -q --provides". Rh-eclipse46 providel 4 packages, devstudio provides 539 packages.
