Pete,
I think Dave already mentioned that it *is* planned to add this to
Fedora but he's just waiting on the merge status, I think?
Right. iirc, Matt Domsch has it packaged for extras already.
But core packages right now can't depend on extras packages to build.
Once the core/extras merge is complete, all this stuff goes
away, and just becomes another BuildRequires:
