Does the AUR parse provides= when listing depends? Pacman can use that info *if it's in a repo*, but can the same be said for AUR?
No, but that is something you should write when renaming a package. And I don't think we should keep badly named packages around. Change 'em and let the dependents catch up. This is 'unsupported' after all.
Maybe it's worth to extend here, to avoid bad package naming in the future. http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Packaging_Standards#Package_Naming Best Regards, Laszlo Papp
