Hi, In the oomd package <https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/oomd/>, I put a linux>=4.20 dependency requirement since it requires the new resource pressure metrics <https://facebookmicrosites.github.io/psi/> introduced in linux 4.20. But as another user pointed out, some of the alternatives kernel packages declare provides=("linux=${pkgver}"), but several of the most popular do not (linux-lts, linux-dzen, linux-hardened). What we would be correct way to handle this ? Should I just drop the version requirement (since having a kernel>=4.20 does not imply you are running this one anyway) ? Or should these packages be improved ?
