FPC unexpectedly refused to ratify a proposal that put into writing our
de-facto font package naming rules for the past years, and requested naming
changes. As a result many font packages have been or will be renamed soon
(including recently created packages)

We have detected your package depends on such a font package. Please change
your dependencies accordingly.

To ease the transition and avoid breaking F11 Alpha DejaVu has already been
renamed but still declares its old names for full via rpm Provides. Those
provides will be removed for Fedora 11 beta, to ensure no remaining legacy deps
remains in the distribution. In the meanwhile packages depending on DejaVu full
won't break and can be adapted at your leasure.
