Note its a should and not a must. I think a -libs subpackage is a clear counter example that doesn't fall in the 'usual' wording. I would daresay that usually, -libs subpackages don;t require the base package. Do we really need that SHOULD? Or do we need to expand on it a little? -jef -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
