RPM: prereq is deprecated

When I define prerequisites in an RPM build using the rpmPrerequisites key, I get warnings that "prereq is deprecated".

See: Scriptlet Dependencies documentation on rpm.org.

Because of a caveat documented in the link above, changing the meaning of rpmPrerequisites is a bad idea, so there should probably be some new key that supports modeling the scopes of RPM dependencies.

Thanks for the report. Adding this feature shouldn't be, too hard. Do you have time to give it a try?

I've started the pre-process internally at my employer to be able to propose patches for release/contribution to this project, but that could take a while. I'll update here if that gets approved. (Until then, I'd encourage anyone less encumbered than me to take this on.)

Awesome! Thanks a lot for taking these steps. We are currently all very busy, so every help counts :)

@erikswanson any news on this :)

@muuki88 It's more complicated than I expected, and unfortunately, not worth dealing with for something as small as this. :(

Thanks for the update. I'll leave this issue open as this should be handled at somepoint.
