Hi, We'd like Eclipse packages (which we want to extend to all OSGi packages and then to whatever module system Sun puts into Java 7 or 8) to have RPM automatically generate Provides and Requires. This is similar to how it's done for DSOs or perl, python, or mono modules. Example: $ rpm -q --requires tomboy [I've stripped the non-mono requirements] ... mono(glib-sharp) = 2.10.0.0 mono(gnome-sharp) = 2.16.0.0 mono(gtk-sharp) = 2.10.0.0 ... $ rpm -q --provides gnome-sharp mono(gnome-sharp) = 2.16.0.0 I imagine this will manifest itself in a shell script to run over jars in a certain location and extract their META-INF/MANIFEST.MF and parse out the OSGi provides and requires. It would of course be better to do this as an OSGi app but I wonder how the RPM guys would feel about having an Eclipse or Java dependency. I don't think we want to do something like java(modulename) yet, but just having it automatically generate these lists would get us a long way there. Anyone have any thoughts? Kyu Lee is going to investigate this and will keep us posted as he progresses. Andrew
