np, still documenting this

%{name} should require the font packages, and they will drag in common

> 3. rpmlint will yell about that.

rpmlint is not always right. Ask skvidal on irc if you don't believe me.
Provides: oldname is only necessary if other packages depend on oldname and you
don't want them to change

> 4. Not sure what I would say, honestly.

I know, probably need to ask on the oflb mailing list what a good description
would be (or find one on wikipedia)
