The project depends on Nerd Fonts in general, not specifically the symbols-only font. IMO Nerd Fonts packages should `provides=('nerd-fonts')` and then packages can `depends=('nerd-fonts')` instead.

See for example the `emoji-font` providers: https://www.archlinux.org/packages/?sort=&q=emoji%2Dfont
