But that's correct, because the first provides is a superset of the
second (so the package will match for "foo = 3.0", and showing the
second will probably be a bit confusing).
I don't know of any packages with the above, but on RHEL-5 the kernel
packages has had a similar problem where it has:
In [10]: sorted((p for p in x.provides if p[0] == 'kernel'))
Out[10]:
[('kernel', 'EQ', ('0', '2.6.18', None)),
('kernel', 'EQ', ('0', '2.6.18', '274.el5'))]
% repoquery -q --provides kernel | fgrep 'kernel '
kernel = 2.6.18
kernel = 2.6.18-274.17.1.el5
...and people generally see the second one, and don't realize that the
first one means that "Requires: kernel-2.6.18-blah" is provided by it.
