In Fedora 23, rpm has grown support for weak dependencies (Recommends:

dnf/libsolv yet, which means these tags will have no effect at image
compose time.

This has implications for spin kickstarts: the set of packages included
in media derived from a kickstart will be a subset of the packages you
would see installed by passing the kickstart package/group list to dnf.
As a result, any packages that you want to see included on the
generated media must be either explicitly listed in the kickstart, or
brought in with Requires: from another package. Technically this is not
different from previous Fedora releases, but it is different from what
you might get from using F23's dnf to compute a package list.

Product and spin kickstart maintainers are advised to double-check the
package manifests for the produced media to ensure all packages they
want included actually are included.

​Are the compose tools going to match DNF's behavior in package dependency resolution in the near future?​
