Hi Dmitry, this is the by-effect of our unfortunate naming of PHP packages. PHP packages now automatically generates Provides for all included extensions.
So, intentional yes, correct up-to-discussion. I can drop the Provides quite easily, but ... php-gettext has just few rev-deps: Checking reverse dependencies... # Broken Depends: ampache: ampache-common civicrm: civicrm-common nagvis: nagvis phpmyadmin: phpmyadmin scuttle: scuttle tt-rss: tt-rss # Broken Build-Depends: ampache: php-gettext civicrm: php-gettext So the other option might be to rename php-gettext written in PHP to php-php-gettext (same as f.e. Fedora has) and fix those 6 packages. Marcelo, what do you think? Does this seem viable to you?
