--- Comment #7 from Petr Pisar <ppi...@redhat.com> ---
The issue is that for resolving the arbitrary-file dependency, a package
manager needs to have a complete list of all files of all packages of a
repository. Such list is large (3 times than a list of RPM provides/requires
and files located in the /usr/bin, /usr/sbin/, /etc). Downloading and
processing it take time. But users wants fast package managers. That's why
Fedora aim to eradicate the kind of dependencies you have now in the rt
package. E.g. DNF5 which is scheduled to replace DNF4 in Fedora 39 does not
download the complete file list if not needed. Your package basically
undermines this pursuit.
