Actually,
  The 'Red Hat RPM Guide' recommends that and they point
  you to scripts that show you how to do that.

  A sample outline of such a .spec file would be the
  following :

  Summary: Use to generate virtual package of NVidia and MKL stuff.
  Vendor:  Endocardial Solutions, Inc.
  Name:    vlc_virtual
  Version: 1
  Release: your release info here
  Group:   your group here
  License: your license info here

  %description
  Create virtual package specifying libraries need by
  vlc-0.7.2-1.i386.rpm

  Provides: libXinerama.so.1
  Provides: libasound.so.2
  Provides: mozilla

  %prep
  # Nothing to do

  %build
  # Nothing to do

  %install
  # Nothing to do

  %clean
  # Nothing to do

  %files
  # No files in a virtual package.

I named the .spec file 'vlc_virtual.spec'.

Sandra Carney
