Some packages in Fedora provide shared RPM lua code that's used by other packages.
It would be nice to have automatic Provides for this code like we have for rpm macros themselves.
Usecase:
Recently, forge.lua that's used by go-srpm-macros and fonts-srpm-macros moved out of redhat-rpm-config.
I would like to be able to add
Requires: rpm_lua(fedora.srpm.forge)
to those packages instead of having to rely on it being implicitly pulled in by redhat-rpm-config or adding conditional dependencies on forge-srpm-macros.
