Wouldn't It Be Cool(tm) if rpm did pick these dependencies automatically?

Anyone care to integrate the above into the RPM scripts?

May I warn that whatever implementation is chosen, this is not an easy
problem to fully automate. Regular software packages (not development)
must NOT have deps on -devel packages. Automated script in rpmbuild
would need to only add deps to -devel packages, and only if -devel
packages are split. But then there are a whole bunch of exceptions to
this. It is simply not this easy to automate this and do the right thing.
