Description of problem: All SMTP servers in Fedora should have a virtual provides for "server(smtp)". sendmail and postix already have it and it will become more important if/once we remove sendmail from the default install as suggested in https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/NoMoreSendmail
It seems the correct provide is already there: $ grep -m 1 -i provides: exim.spec Provides: MTA smtpd smtpdaemon server(smtp) $ repoquery -q --provides exim | grep 'server(smtp)' server(smtp) I checked f18 and rawhide.
