I'm fuzzy on the details of distro packaging, but David's suggestion is
that rdmatool wouldn't get built if rdma-core isn't present. But
everything else would.  Just like it does not get built if libmnl is not
installed.  For pre-built rpms, the rdma-core would have to be present. 

I'm ok pulling it in, I'm just trying to understand. :)

Steve.
