I suspect that the satisfaction of a Requires: XXX < 0 by versionless Provides is not implemented in the optimizer, because it is a strange behavior of the real rpm, which looks a bit like a dirty hack. (It would be even much more dirty if a versionless Provides could satisfy any versioned Requires like = N or >= N, not only < N -- I haven't tested that yet.)

BTW, that's like this even for other Requires, not only < 0: https://lists.altlinux.org/pipermail/devel/2019-November/208919.html "unversioned provides satisfy versioned requires" (at@): Мужчины, у вас по-прежнему сабж.
