However, in the few ugly cases where multi-version is required, it should be possible to accommodate - rubygemsdeps.rb could generate the following extra Provides:
multiversion(rubygem) multiversion(rubygem-foo) multiversion(rubygem-foo-1) multiversion(rubygem-foo-1_2) multiversion(1.9:rubygem-foo) multiversion(1.9:rubygem-foo-1) multiversion(1.9:rubygem-foo-1_2)
and then any product-oriented rpm could install the appropriate multiversion policy / policies into /etc/zypp/multiversion.d/ e.g.
multiversion = provides:multiversion(1.9:rubygem-foo)'
which would allow multiple versions of the foo gem to co-exist simultaneously for a 1.9 ruby install.
So I have *still* not heard a convincing reason why we would ever need suffices in the Name: field.
