--- Comment #3 from Adrien Devresse <adev88@xxxxxxxxx> ---
> These build dependencies are direct build dependencies. Using indirect dependencies of other build dependencies to fulfil direct build dependences is in most cases not a good idea, since indirect dependencies can change when the version of the dependencies change. While it is true that the current version of globus-xio-gsi-driver-devel has a dependency on globus-xio-devel >= 3 this does not imply that all previous versions of globus-xio-gsi-driver-devel had such a requirement, or that all future versions will have it.

Question of point of view :) 
For devel packages, removing a dependency to an other -devel package means
often an API/ABI break  which should not occurs anyway.
However, I know that the globus dependency tree is not trivial
I wanted to signal it, but it's clearly not a blocking issue for me.

Fine for me.


> You tried to build a SRPM generated on Fedora 19 on EPEL 5. This fails since newer versions of rpm uses more modern digest algorithms that are not supported by the older rpm version on EPEL 5. If this should work you need to force the use of MD5 instead of the default.

My apologizes for this, I did not think to this usual md5 problem.

EL5 compiles now without problems :

EL5: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=6283592


Nothing critical anymore for me, package well done & accepted.
