Hi Craig,

Well, lazy me: pam-devel already requires pam, and given that I am
testing these in build machines, I did not notice these already.

That said, I was expecting RPM to pick up these automagically...


Yeah, you'd think that if a package Requires: something and BuildRequires: something-devel, it'd implicitly have any -devel package Requires: something-devel too. Apparently not.

You can still yum-builddep it from the source package, but the -devel package won't be properly usable without separately and manually installing build-depends for the source package.
