If it's still needed, why is it requiring: > # Numactl is not available on s390[x] and ARM > %ifnarch s390 s390x %{arm} > Requires: numactl > %endif > > %ifarch x86_64 > Requires: python2-dmidecode > Requires: dmidecode > Requires: virt-v2v > %endif > These are hacks Yaniv added so we can make vdsm noarch package. Since then we reverted back to vdsm arch specific package but the bad requirements remained in safelease. We can safely remove the requirements from safelease if vdsm requires these packages, but I'm not sure who has time to work on safelease. I think it is time to remove export and iso domain in 4.4.
