> +By default, the generated virtual requires are _hard_ dependencies. This can be
+problematic when upgrading an existing distribution to RPM 4.19, however, so it
+is possible to weaken these requires into recommends, by setting
+*%\_use_weak_usergroup_deps* to *1* in the *rpmbuild-config*(5).
+
+# TECHNICAL DETAILS
+## Encoding
+
+RPM will generate any combination of the following virtual provides based on,
+and attached to, the packaged *sysusers.d*(5) file(s):
+
+*user(*_uname_*) = *_base64_++
+*group(*_gname_*)*[* = *_base64_]++
+*groupmember(*_uname_*/*_gname_*) = *_base64_
+
+_uname_ and _gname_ are the respective user and group name. _base64_ is a base64

...and then we can probably drop this explanation because it's obvious enough 😅
