Could do it on a best effort basis in a special meta package. I'd be
annoyed to complicate existing spec files with compatibility cruft, but
task-proprietary-compat-* subpackages seems fine to me.
Might not work in all cases, in which case: too bad!
Thinking of e.g.:
Provides: $FEDORA_THING
Requires: $OUR_THING
I've been thinking of something like for the RPM categories.
It wouldn't have to be focused on Redhat/Fedora only, as Suse seems to
differ as well.
Maybe something that could massage the installable rpm files, so any
user could adjust whatever rpm, even without the srpm.
