Hi,

We generally assume the user has everything in base and base-devel installed and so don't list those packages.

Aren't there exceptions? Doesn't it make sense to include things which a configure script might determine as optional, e.g. gettext?

I think studying the output of configure and making a reasoned decision on what to put in makedepends is often better that just assuming the presence of something.

Regards,
Neil Darlow
