That's interesting idea. I only worry there could be cases when the
perl-generators were unnecessarily installed. E.g. you install vim-enhanced,
thus you have perl-libs, and you install rpm-build for building non-perl
packages. Then you will have perl-generators. I'm not sure how much it
would bother people.

One more issue. It would not work if you had a spec file that does not need
a perl for building. Spec that only installs a perl script into /usr/bin.
I know there are some.

These package should be considered broken.

We require run-time deps to be present as build-deps to make sure these packages actually are runable and installable.
