Aha! That's exactly what I was looking for. I found an example that fits very close to my use case (from the Java packages).
The maven-resources-plugin declares that it provides maven2-plugin-resources [1]. Perhaps the latter is an old name, or something people tend to call it. Either way, this works: yum install maven2-plugin-resources That would mean that if I had: Provides: asciidoctor or Provides: awestruct Then these would work: yum install asciidoctor yum install awestruct Then I would be a happy packager :) -Dan [1] http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/maven-resources-plugin.git/tree/maven-resources-plugin.spec#n44 On Thu, Mar 28, 2013 at 3:55 PM, Ken Dreyer <[email protected]> wrote: > On Thu, Mar 28, 2013 at 3:11 PM, Dan Allen <[email protected]> wrote: > > Is it possible to have > > an alias package in this case like in Debian where it will install > > rubygem-asciidoctor when you request asciidoctor? > > I would love to see this for some other utility gems as well, like > "gem2rpm" or "puppet-lint".
