Thanks for the suggestion. That may work indeed, depending on rpm operator priority. To be sure, you'd need lots of lispy parenthesis (as the rpm documentation seems to recommend). ((((x >= 1.3.0) without x = 1.3.2) without (x = 1.3.4)) without (x = 1.5.7) Unfortunately both solutions (no parenthesis, cross fingers, lots of parenthesis, sure result) are quite human unfriendly.
The page I saw was explicit that repeated and/or didn't need parens and I assumed that extended to with/without which were introduced more recently: https://rpm.org/user_doc/boolean_dependencies.html#nesting
So I'm going to try ((x >= 1.3.0) without ((x = 1.3.2) or (x = 1.3.4) or (x = 1.5.7))) which is sure to work semantically, and is more regular and human- friendly
Does that work, given that or allows different packages to match different branches of the condition?
