Why is the claim wrong? How the fuck is RPM supposed to do any ordering on systemd when systemd is not even given as an input to the rpm transaction?
That was not my example.
That is true, Jan's claim doesn't affect your example. I think both points are valid and orthogonal, though. In your situation ($program and systemd being updated in the same transaction) you need the ordering requests, in his situation ($program available before systemd) you need the versioned requires. Both are required to be able to mindlessly update $program without risking a broken system, either by forcing the correct order or by forcing to accept an unfulfillable requires on an (in the situation still unavailable) versioned systemd.
