What we have now is like saying that .h files should depend on gcc
because you use gcc to consume them.
Several KDE -devel packages do require cmake and even g++ though. The idea
is that you will normally need CMake and g++ to build anything against that
-devel package.
That said, for CMake, this is not currently part of the AutoRequires, that
only drags in cmake-filesystem for directory ownership (and in fact, I guess
directory ownership is a reason for the pkg-config AutoRequires too), any
Requires: cmake is manually added.
