The libraries in 'luaext' are ancient (from 2003!) vendored in versions of
[lrexlib](https://rrthomas.github.io/lrexlib/) and
[lposix](http://webserver2.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/~lhf/ftp/lua/#lposix) (which was
superceded by [luaposix](https://github.com/luaposix/luaposix))

Further examination yields that libsolv already supports a way of dealing with
this: REL_WITH which is represented in libsolvs dependency language as "+" and
we probably want to represent in RPM as "with".
The semantic of the with operator is both sides need to be matched by the same
package.
