Or maybe it was removed from fedora core prior to fc3 and the new
diskdumputils package has a packaging error.  The diskdumputils
specfile has an explicit requires on devlabel but devlabel hasnt been
available in rawhide afaict since before fc3 release....hmmmm.

The package changlog summaries for diskdumputils don't explicitly
indicate why the requires on devlabel was recreated. The only mention
in the changelog of anything relevant to devlabel (when compared to
the devlabel in fc2) is from sep 2004 right around the time devlabel
was removed from rawhide... double hmmmm.

- Always load scsi_dump and ide-dump because scsi_uniq_id becomes
  obsolete.

scsi_uniq_id is provided by the devlabel package in fc2
and according to the build reports generated to this list devlabel was
dropped from rawhide on 20040928.

Furthermore i'm doing a grep of all the files in the diskdumputils and
im not seeing any references to anything devlabel related. Perhaps
someone with better cvs foo than I can delve into the cvs tree for
diskdumputils and see if adding the devlabel requires back in actually
makes any sense at all.

Personally a think an rhel specific Requires on devlabel got
accidentally added into the rawhide tree  for diskdumputils, and its
already filed
