The Provides: needs a version, like "swh-plugins = %{version}-%{release}".
For more info, including guidelines for how long to keep the Provides in the

Yes, if you're sure you got everything right. Remember also to add
ladspa-swh-plugins to owners.list in CVS and to mark branches of swh-plugins
that were renamed as dead in CVS (FC6+ I gather), see the PackageEndOfLife
document above.

The Obsoletes you're about to add should take care of that.
