I don't think so. Providing eg. moodle-zh_tw = %{version}-%{release} in
itself is redundant. One thing that you may want to have a look in the above
is that there are self-obsoletion problems - changing those to these in both
zh_cn and zh_tw could help (assuming %{version} is greater than or equal to
1.6.4):
Obsoletes: moodle-zh < 1.6.4
Provides: moodle-zh = %{version}-%{release}
Or perhaps drop the Provides altogether? See
