I'm writing a simple provides generator. The documentation is a bit
light on detail:

How do I get the version-release of the package currently being built?
At the moment I can only print simple provides like:
Provides: foo
but I want to include the version of the package being built, eg:
Provides: foo = 1.2-3.fc36
In theory it seems like the environment variables $RPM_PACKAGE_VERSION
and $RPM_PACKAGE_RELEASE should be set in the dependency generator,
but I just confirmed they are not set.
I dumped out the environment from the dependency generator and the
only RPM-specific environment variable is $RPM_BUILD_ROOT. I could
get the version from that, but it would be a bit of a hack.
Name, epoch, version and release are available as macros in the .attr
file so you can pass what you need from there, eg to pass version and
release as arguments to the provides generator, you can do:
%__my_provides /path/to/my/depgen %{version} %{release}
This seems to be missing in the docs, will fix.
