--- Comment #10 from Michael Schwendt (Fedora Packager Sponsors Group) <bugs.michael@xxxxxxx> ---
I've sent a mail to packaging@ list to seek clarification. It's not pretty that
there are filesystem packages in disguise, such as hicolor-icon-theme. And
there used to be others, too. The guidelines still mention "man", which is gone
meanwhile. I don't think all filesystem packages must end with -filesystem in
their name. If that's a strict requirement for them to be named like that, the
guidelines ought to be fixed.

It's only gnome-shell-extension-background-logo that doesn't require
gnome-shell-extension-common. All other extensions depend on that filesystem
package. And yes, I wish the guidelines were more clear.

Using conditionals would be convenient, if you plan to use the same spec for
multiple dist releases:

I think the implicit/automatic dependency on glib2 via gnome-shell is
sufficient. If adding a temporary explicit dependency on glib2 -- as mentioned
in the mail to desktop@ list -- it cannot be arch-specific, of course. But
depsolvers usually do the right thing and, for example, would not pull in
glib2.i686 on x86_64 (unless they run into unresolvable deps).

Of course.

I've sent a message to desktop@ list.
