> +from being added:
+
+```
+%define __provides_exclude_from ^%{_libdir}/mypkg/.*.so$
+```
+
+The *exclude* variants operate on generated dependency strings. For example, the
+following macro will prevent all typical library requires from being added,
+regardless of which files they originate from:
+
+```
+%define __requires_exclude ^lib.*$
+```
+
+Note that, within spec files, any backslashes need to be double-escaped in order
+to prevent the spec parser from consuming them.

Added to the troubleshooting section.
