As part of the f34 change request[1] for removing make from the

BuildRequires: make where it is needed.
What happened to excluding packages which use cmake?
The packages would still need to depend on make or ninja.
Do we really have to go through this all again?
As discussed in the previous cycle of this discussion
make is the default - if you use the %cmake macros without
specifying a backend then they will default to make which
means you just run cmake and it runs make.
In that circumstance the package correctly depends on
cmake, and it depends on make as it's chosen backend and
there is no reason for the packager to know or care which
backend cmake has chosen to use.
I thought that had eventually been accepted by the authors
of this proposal but I see no sign of that in the latest list
of affected packages.
But I guess at this point I need to give up arguing and get
on with updating eleven packages...
