$ rpm -qR mono-winforms | grep ^lib
libgdiplus-devel
Sorry, this is inacceptable. -devel packages ought to stay optional.
Not only does this break rpmdev-rmdevelrpms,
$ sudo rpmdev-rmdevelrpms -y
[...]
...whose removal would cause unresolved dependencies:
mono-winforms-2.0.1-12.fc10 requires libgdiplus-devel
Not removed due to dependencies.
and it also pulls in pkg-config and leads to broken pkg-config deps:
$ cat /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libgdiplus.pc | grep Req
Requires: glib-2.0 gmodule-2.0 gthread-2.0
Looking at mono.spec, the file doesn't explain this. With luck I found
this F8 ticket:
missing link ln -s libgdiplus.so.0.0.0 libgdiplus.so
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/426519
Is that the reason for the unusual "Requires" of a -devel pkg?
Do you only need the libgdiplus.so link?
Can't mono-winforms be patched to accept libgdiplus.so.0 instead?
