In Fedora 23, rpm has grown support for weak dependencies (Recommends:
and Suggests: tags). However, the compose tools have not been ported to
dnf/libsolv yet, which means these tags will have no effect at image
compose time.
This has implications for spin kickstarts: the set of packages included
in media derived from a kickstart will be a subset of the packages you
would see installed by passing the kickstart package/group list to dnf.
As a result, any packages that you want to see included on the
generated media must be either explicitly listed in the kickstart, or
brought in with Requires: from another package. Technically this is not
different from previous Fedora releases, but it is different from what
you might get from using F23's dnf to compute a package list.
Product and spin kickstart maintainers are advised to double-check the
package manifests for the produced media to ensure all packages they
want included actually are included.

Are the compose tools going to match DNF's behavior in package dependency resolution in the near future?
