PEP 345 introduces "Requires" and "Provides" wich are
  are implemented in Distutils and PyP, but are not
  widely used. 40 out of +4000 if I remember correctly. Martin will
  correct me here if I am wrong.

Here are the actual numbers of packages that had a certain specifier
in atleast one of their releases:
- requires: 334
- provides: 84
- obsoletes: 18
(total number of packages in my local database snapshot: 6101)

Martin
