This is sort of a weird issue since you don't need python-devel to build or use Pyrex. You do however need it as a BuildRequires for any packages that use Pyrex. In other words you can generate Pyrex bindings without python-devel but you will need python-devel to build those bindings. I would say it doesn't hurt to have Pyrex require python- devel. -- John (J5) Palmieri Associate Software Engineer Desktop Group Red Hat, Inc. Blog: http://martianrock.com
