well yes... they shouldn't do that... but I'm asking how do we do a
better job of checking for that...especially when rpmbuild's
automagical provides calculator notices something and makes it a
provides when you did not explicitly ask it to be? If building binary
packages and checking its provides list isn't a hard review
requirement for pre-submission reviews... how else can we do a better
job of catching this sort of thing?

And how do we do a better job of making sure that if it happens it
doesn't bite us in the buildsystem itself?
