harmful python-* Provides without epoch

[Jakub Bogusz]

[main]
Provides:       %{name} = %{py_ver}
%package libs
Provides:       %{name}-libs = %{py_ver}
%package modules
Provides:       %{name}-modules = %{py_ver}
%package static
Provides:       %{name}-static = %{py_ver}

are harmful - they break existing %pyrequires_eq.

$ rpm -q --provides python-libs | grep python-libs
python-libs = 2.3
python-libs = 1:2.3.4-1
(and so on for base, -modules, -static)

So "Requires: python-libs < 1:2.4" rule generated by pyrequires_eq is
_satisfied_ by python-libs 1:2.4 providing "python-libs = 2.4"...

Some workaround could be not to use epoch in less-than rules... but it
could turn out harmful in the future.

Does anyone have better, reliable solution than dropping these
non-epoched provides and updating existing non-epoched dependencies?
