But if you want to build the upstream source of a package for any reason having a command that installs required packages is handy. For instance if I want to build "foo" to write / test a patch I do "yum-builddep foo" "jhbuild buildone foo" ... I have the code, can hack on it, can build it without messing with deps and do not have to build a package (development does not always mean "packing"). -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
