I'm not 100% sure, but the situation is like this afaics: python-devel gets pull in the default buildroot of FE5 and FE6 by some dep from the list at http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Exceptions That seems to have changed in devel. That was noticed for the first time some weeks ago -- some people discussed this in #fedora-extras iirc (or was it even discussed on one of the several lists? not sure, can't remember) and wanted to further investigate, but nothing "official" came out of it afaik. Anyway, how to proceed? python-devel is not in the Full Exception list from http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/FullExceptionList and thus should have been listed as BR normally in any case. It further seems people would like to keep the default buildroot as small as possible. Thus simply adding the BR:python-devel seems like the best to me.
