[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] [RFE] Provides/Requires post processing (Issue #1850)

[Vít Ondruch]

It would be nice, if Requires/Provides could be postprocessed. I've got 2 usecases in mind:

1) I am working on dependency generator for RubyGems. As soon as this generator is deployed, it will result in duplicated Requires/Provides. One set is the original Requires/Provides specified in .spec file and the other are the automatically generated Requires/Provides. If there would be possible Provides/Requires postprocessing, I could remove the duplicated entries.

2) In software collections, we have to modify Requires/Provides to include scl prefix, e.g. Requires: %{scl_prefix}foo. If there would be postprocessing possible, scl-utils could deploy its postprocessing filter and prepend the prefixes automatically.

There might be other usecases as well.
