Initiate build requires cleanup for base related packages in
Fedora working with maintainers and the community. The goal is to
reduce the number of self-hosting packages required for Base from
currently over 2000 packages.

Just a few (probably silly ;) ideas which comes to my mind reading
about this initiative:

* It might be interesting to have some script, which tries to audit
BR, e.g. it removes all BR first and then adds them back as they are
required. This could reveal some BR which are actually not needed
anymore, but are listed among BR from historic reasons.

auto-buildrequires:

Ah, i remember you talked about that before Richard. Thanks for the link, i'll definitely be looking into that. If i have any patches that i'd like to get reviewed shall i send them to you directly or is there a ML somewhere where to send them?

Thanks & regards, Phil
