So… we certainly don't want people having to declare the dependency manually everywhere.
The packaging guidelines seem to say that the manual dependency is required, though.
Yeah, you need *some* dependency. But opencryptoki has BR:systemd-devel, and systemd-devel has R:systemd, which has the Requires(meta) under discussion. So an explicit BR:systemd-rpm-macros should be redundant.
the BR: systemd-devel in opencryptoki might be just a historical relict, because it used to be required to define the various macros (IIRC)
