I don't accept your claim that these are the most common used packages to build our rpms. Sure they're used upstream and such, but not in our rpm build process. They should be viewed just like any other build requirement and listed as such. For you its two auto* packages. To somebody else, it's just pkgconfig, to yet another person its just intltool and gettext, so on and so forth. The line has to be drawn somewhere and it has been drawn. -- Jesse Keating Release Engineer: Fedora
