Actually, thinking more about it, having a Requires:emacs-common is sub-optimal, as the user who oesn't have any emacs package installed could install the add-on, which would pull in emacs-commonm, but not emacs or emacs-nox.
That's right, but IMHO it's the lesser evil when compared to insisting on a particular flavour of the actual emacs binary. Mileages vary and I'm not going to insist on that though ;), especially because:
I will open a bugzilla RFE asking for a virtual Provides: emacs(bin) though for the future, I think that's a good idea.
