Hello, the obs-studio package for OpenSUSE Tumbleweed x86_64
now has a dependency on a provider of libcef.so:


$ zypper info --requires obs-studio

Information for package obs-studio:
-----------------------------------
Repository     : Packman
Name           : obs-studio
Version        : 29.0.2-1699.3.pm.2
...
Requires       : [175]
...
    libcef.so()(64bit)
...


As a result, installing this package pulls in syslog-ng from
TW's OSS repo, because:


$ zypper info --provides syslog-ng

...

Provides       : [45]
...
    libcef.so()(64bit)
...


Obviously the two libcef.so are not the same. obs-studio is
talking about Chromium Embedded Framework while syslog-ng is talking
about Common Event Format.

obs-studio-29.0.2-1699.2.pm.5 from last week does not have
this requirement, it is new in some version between that and
the current 29.0.2-1699.3.pm.2 . Perhaps due to
https://pmbs.links2linux.org/request/show/5781 ?

Thanks,
Arnav
