The way I see the issue, a software would likely need a interface, ie "something that provides /usr/bin/sendmail with this set of supported option". We cannot requires directly this file due to alternative ( I think ), so we may need a Requires/Provides for that. I do not see why a rpm would need to express " I need to have something listening on port 25" or anything like that ( and so pull smtpd or anything like this ), from a network point of view ( since anything using the network could use a different host, so this mean a Requires is not the good way to express this dependency ). -- Michael Scherer -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
