fixed in smc-fonts-04.1-6
i think it will be in tomorrow's rawhide

Comment 2 Nicolas Mailhot 2009-04-03 09:37:46 UTC
While you certainly have the option as maintainer to add Provides, you should note that other fedora font packages did not add them and the maintainers of packages depending on them just fixed their deps.

Which is the correct long-term fix anyway.

Comment 3 Pravin Satpute 2009-04-03 09:45:02 UTC
see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=493792

I think we should keep it till f13 probably
