--- Comment #57 from Miro Hrončok <mhroncok@xxxxxxxxxx> ---
> My default has been to always minimize the BuildRequires listings for easier maintenance.  Since he needed python3-cffi he could get two for one there.  It doesn't really matter to me whether it's listed explicitly or not, but I've always liked the shorter BuildRequires listings.

I consider this approach error prone: in the future, cffi or Python might no
longer need setuptools and the dependency will be removed, suddenly, this
package will fail to build. Since this package uses setuptools directly (and
not trough cffi), I think that listing the build dependency explicitly is the
right thing to do.

In fact, we want to get rid of the current "python3-devel requires
python3-setuptools" thing, but many packages don't list setuptools explicitly,
that makes it hard for us.
