Hello,
Something else that might need updating in light of dpkg's support for
versioned Provides: is the advice that
If a relationship field has a version number attached, only real
packages will be considered to see whether the relationship is
satisfied (or the prohibition violated, for a conflict or
breakage). In other words, if a version number is specified, this is
a request to ignore all Provides for that package name and consider
only real packages.
Would a versioned Provides:, too, get ignored if there is real package
with the same name present?
