> Why filter out perl(Convert::ASN1)? Any cons of removing this dep?

This dep also is manually added:
...
Requires:       perl(Convert::ASN1) >= 0.19
...

Without filtering, the package carry this dep twice, the manually added
(versioned) one and an automatically added (unversioned one).
The latter is redundant to the former one and thus is unnecessary.

As such redundant deps cause dependency bloat in yum metadata files and in
rpmdb, its common practice to filter out less such redundant "Requires:".
