And why can't I apply them? Anything in the rman catalog can be restored
even after a dupe. I'd just be restoring to a point in time before the
dupe. As stated in an earlier posting in this thread, this is a TEST
database and only gets cold backups. No recovery would be necessary.

In my specific case I have no intentions of ever restoring the old
backups. I just want to delete them with a "delete obsolete" command.
But since duplication changes the dbid, "delete obsolete" will not work
on those pre-duplication backups and they sit forever in both the rman
catalog and the MML.
