I think this exactly shows why it does not make sense to list buildreqs
in too much detail. gettext/texinfo/auto*/libtool etc all should be
required elsewhere.
I reported about missing buildreq perl-XML-Parser for several packages.
The majority of these reports have been accepted, but once the answer
was (approximately so) " I do not want to add dependencies on base
packages, such as automake ..."
Whether there is a list of packages which are considered base for build?
If I have this list, I will not report about missing buildreqs on such
packages.
