Yes, for an automated build system of course. But I added it for local buildings (as the SPEC is from a repository that can be used to build locally). At CentOS I can see pkgconfig is a dependency for rpm-build, as well as at Amazon Linux 2017.03, but not for example at openSUSE Leap 42.3, and maybe not at other RPM based distribution. So if a user is trying to build the package at any distribution without pkgconfig installed and not having pkgconfig as rpm-build dependency, pkgconfig will be mentioned on its own: error: Failed build dependencies: pkgconfig is needed by s3fs-fuse-1.84-2.x86_64 pkgconfig(fuse) >= 2.8.4 is needed by s3fs-fuse-1.84-2.x86_64 pkgconfig(libcurl) is needed by s3fs-fuse-1.84-2.x86_64 pkgconfig(libxml-2.0) is needed by s3fs-fuse-1.84-2.x86_64 pkgconfig(openssl) is needed by s3fs-fuse-1.84-2.x86_64 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
