A good strategy for changes like this is to not even try to find out if anything's using something. Fedora != the world, and we have a documented process for changes like this that not only stuff in Fedora, but things outside of Fedora that build on it should be able to rely on. Just add the Provides, and remove it later: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Renaming.2FReplacing_Existing_Packages -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
