So, a Provides field may not contain version numbers, and the version number of the concrete package which provides a particular virtual package will not be looked at when considering a dependency on or conflict with the virtual package name. That's also where the root of the problem lies, "gnome-desktop-environment" depends on a particular version number (or higher), which is not (and cannot be) provided by the virtual package. So it doesn't work via "provides". Sorry for the noise.
