Sure it is. Just add the program version you want, eg. something like "Provides: foo(upstream) = $upstream_version" (no Epoch, most likely no Release) to packages and start using it. Or maybe even change rpmbuild to do it automatically so that for every N = E:V-R package, "Provides: N(upstream) = V" is inserted if this is something people would find generally useful. > Dependencies like "php >= 4.2" are just for fun. Again, depends. In this case those would be useful for folks working with Fedora and RHEL 2.1 (which continues to be supported still for almost 3 years and has php 4.1.2). -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
