I'm pretty sure I heard/read Chip say in the past that they used sblim in regression testing :-) I think the Require is the result of RHEL packaging where tog-pegasus was the only one present. Also I don't know (but might exist) any construct allowing Requires: tog-pegasus or sblim-sfcb as you said the only way in rpm is to define a generic provide (maybe more specific than just 'cim' what about 'cim-server') then Requires: cim-server in the libvirt-cim and add the Provides: cim-server in all server packages. The only problem with that is that we ultimately need to "fix" all packages. The first thing would be to make bug requests against tog-pegasus sblim-sfcb to have that added. Unfortunately I don't think we can get this in RHEL-6.3 at this point...
