It's pretty simple, really.  Your package has some sort of shared
library for which RPM automatically generates a Provides: entry, but
which is not actually installed in a path where it can be accessed as a
system library.  This is usually because it's some sort of plugin.

The solution is provided in the document to which you linked: set up
filtering so that RPM does not generate the errant Provides: entry.
