No, the development tools like compilers, make, autconf are assumed to be
available. I realize that the @development-tools group might be broad for
some tastes; later on we'll look at eventually reducing the scope further
of what is assumed to be in the buildroot; for now that is a relativey
sane and safe compromise, I think.
Thank you very much for the information! Although i must confess i'm used to
mach which doesn't install that much packages automatically within a
buildroot, i think it's great there is (or will be) some standard endorsed by
Red Hat which will be used by Fedora Core and Fedora Extras and maybe also by
others like maybe Fedora Legacy.. this will make it easier to transfer a spec
file from Fedora Core to Fedora Extras i guess.
kind regards,
