Description Joe Orton 2012-07-02 15:09:24 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #837042 +++

Description of problem:
Third-party (e.g. EPEL) and Fedora packaging requires a "virtual" provide for the PHP language version, independent of the specific php packages which are installed.  We are using "php(language) = version" for this; this should be added to the php packages in Red Hat Enterprise Linux so third-party packagers can produce consistently packaged PHP libraries (and web applications) for Fedora and RHEL.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
php-5.3.3-14.el6_3

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rpm -q --provides php-common | grep 'php(language)'
  
Actual results:
nada

Expected results:
5.3.3
