Comment 5 Carl George 2015-09-17 13:45:31 UTC
I don't believe this was correctly fixed.  Neither package provides 'python2-requests', and the python3-requests package is providing 'python-requests' (it shouldn't do that until python3 becomes the default system runtime).

> $ rpm -qp --provides python-requests-2.7.0-4.fc22.noarch.rpm 
> python-requests = 2.7.0-4.fc22

> $ rpm -qp --provides python3-requests-2.7.0-4.fc22.noarch.rpm 
> python-requests = 2.7.0-4.fc22
> python3-requests = 2.7.0-4.fc22

I think this is because the python_provide macro wasn't used as intended.  According to the example in the wiki [1], I think that macro expects the package layout to have two subpackages, one for python2 and one for python3.

> Name:           python-%{srcname}
> 
> %package -n python2-%{srcname}
> %{?python_provide:%python_provide python2-%{srcname}}
> 
> %package -n python3-%{srcname}
> %{?python_provide:%python_provide python3-%{srcname}}

The guidelines [2] even explictily state that the macro is intended to be used from within a subpackage.

> When given (as an argument) the name of the current subpackage, it will
> evaluate to either the proper Provide: line or nothing at all as appropriate
> for the version of the system runtime. Thus if the package follows the
> suggested subpackage naming scheme as shown in the below example, placing
> this macro in the definition of each subpackage will guarantee that the
> necessary Provide: line appears where it should, and does not appear where
> it shouldn't.
