Exists the possibility to define an RPM requires statement with a logic? Like:
Requires: mysql-server OR mysql55-mysql-server
MTAs like postfix have "Provides: MTA" to provide such facility. I do not see such possibility for DB packages ...
Thanks -- LF

Not in the RPM in CentOS, and probably not for a long time. The upstream RPM now has this feature, but we're not even using it in Fedora yet. See
