This should have been s/Requirename/Providename/ to stub out a Requires:.
For completeness, one can add dependency assertions for any of these tags
in %{_etcrpm|/sysinfo:
"Providename",
"Requirename",
"Conflictname",
"Obsoletename",
"Dirnames",
"Filelinktos",
The typical usage is to avoid package problems with the rules
Every file "requires" its parent directory.
Every symlink requires its end-point.
instantiated in Dirnames and Filelinktos resp, or for satisfying a Requires:
Note that there usage cases for the other tags (but obscure):
E.g. this line in Requirename more-or-less does what one expects:
diskspace(/tmp) > 10Mb
