2812	[FR] rpm extfs: REQUIRES += versions	gvy	andrew_b	"This is a proposed patch intending to enhance rpm extfs behaviour regarding rpm-required packages.  It was originally filed in ALT Linux bugzilla (https://bugzilla.altlinux.org/27357) on behalf of it author, Alexander Chumachenko (ledest gmail com); the maintainer agreed that the proper way to offer it is upstream bugtracker.  The translation follows.

The attached patch by led@ does some rpm extfs facelift and adds dependency version output; since this shifts the semantics from ""name"" to ""name and maybe a version"", the generated virtual file has been renamed either (REQUIRES instead of REQUIRENAME, more in a line with PROVIDES).

It is esteemed that nothing worse than a passing surprise for some users would happen while improving the overall usefulness.

--- original bits ---

Прилагаемый патчик имени led@ причёсывает rpm extfs и добавляет вывод версий
зависимостей, а поскольку при этом смысл смещается с ""имя"" к ""имя и, возможно,
версия"" -- то и сам генерируемый виртуальный файл переименован (REQUIRES вместо
REQUIRENAME).

По идее, ничего хуже небольшого удивления части пользователей это изменение
произвести не должно, а информативность увеличивается."	enhancement	closed	minor	4.8.11	mc-vfs	master	fixed					merged	committed-master
