Hi,

Don't know if you folks have considered this, but it should be possible to parse the spec, compare the manual build requires specified with the one auto generated by this tool and post the diff as a suggestion to the packager as part of review-o-matic. Does that make sense?

Possibly a bug, possibly because something in the configure script of
the application touches a file in gstreamer-devel.  Take a look at:

There'll be a fedorahosted project of this soon.
