You can't use a virtual provides to solve the problem you are having. If you wanted to mandate that the latest version of unison would always fill any needed deps, you shouldn't have screwed with the packaging names by adding versioning in the name field. By doing that you have delibrately broken version comparison which is done via the version and release fields, so you need to live with that. You could just avoided this and package the latest version with the packagname "unison" and then provided any older versions with versioned packagename like "unisonXYZ.", each providing a virtual provides for 'unison.' The "unison" package would always compare as shortest packagename to fill an implicit dep, and users would still have the ability to install older version explicitly. -jef -jef -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
