Seems like you want devel packages for each feature:
That would mean that if
upstream removes one of features we can't
update it in stable release without proper obsoletes. But since I want
to generate all this stuff automatically it's not possible...
crate-clap-color-devel:
Provides: crate(clap)(color)
Requires: crate(clap) crate(ansi_term) crate(libc)
Cheers,
Michael.
