Log:
Add '__provides_exclude' for private libraries
'libcinnamon.so' and 'libst.so' are private libraries installed
to '%{_libdir}/cinnamon/' (the package-private 'pkglibdir'), not
the system '%{_libdir}/'.
src/meson.build: install_dir: pkglibdir (libcinnamon)
src/st/meson.build: install_dir: pkglibdir (libst)
The spec already has '__requires_exclude' to prevent other packages
from acquiring automatic RPM dependencies on these private libs.
However, the matching '__provides_exclude' was missing, so the
cinnamon RPM still advertised RPM Provides for them — allowing
other packages to manually (or accidentally) depend on these
private, unstable libraries.
The original 2012 spec (commit 11a66b8, 2012-07-20, "filter provides
and requires") did filter both provides and requires. When the macros
were later changed from the old '%filter_provides_in' style to the
modern '%global __requires_exclude' style, the provides filter was
dropped and never restored.
