[Python-modules-team] Bug#802229: python-cffi: Uses versioned Provides

[Stefano Rivera]

Hi Dmitry (2015.10.18_08:54:33_-0700)
> Packages python-cffi-backend and python3-cffi-backend currently have
> versioned Provides field:

This has been supported in dpkg since 1.17.11.

However, we can't safely use it until #786803 is resolved.

> However, the Policy § 7.5 (Virtual packages - Provides) [1] says:

See #761219
