As lot of package are using a bad virtual  provides / requires with a
double dash in EVR, and as a mass rebuild is probably a very bad idea
in stable release, I think this new check should only go in rawhide.

I don't think this calls for a mass rebuild or any kind of a rebuild
actually, nor should it be rawhide only. AFAIU this doesn't affect
runtime at all, only build time, and affected packages can be just
fixed at the same time if they need an update in affected releases in
the first place.

Hmm, what is the recommended fix to affected EVRs which would allow fully transparent updates and upgrades from packages with "broken EVRs"?

To replace "-" with "_"?
