[aur-general] Package depends on 'provides' of another package

Hi,

I'm maintaining almost all packages related to VDR (tvdr.de) in the
AUR. I also provide prebuild packages over here:
https://c-reimer.de/vdr4arch/repos/vdr4arch/os/

The current pkgver of 'vdr' is 2.2.0 and it provides 'vdr-api=2.2.0',
but vdr-api doesn't describe the actual vdr version. It describes the
plugin API version and therefore isn't always equal to the pkgver.

All plugins depend on 'vdr-api=2.2.0' (e.g. vdr-epgsearch) to trigger
an update confict when an incompatible package is still installed or
someone tries to install one.

Unfortunately aurweb is unable to resolve vdr-api back to the actual
vdr package.

So either it's a bug in aurweb or my construct (vdr-plugin --> vdr-api
- --> vdr) is way to complex an there's an easier approach.

Any opinions?


Thanks

Christopher
