Although I love apt for its powerful configuration, I have to admit that 'apt-get build-dep' is not very usefully in the rpm-world: * it detects only the requirements which were used to build the src.rpm, but not the deps which will be required * extending functionality is a non-trivial task, as the dep-resolving should happen as non-root while the final package removal/installation must happen as root Enrico
