You're going to have to be more specific. Which auto-generated deps? library deps (which have been in place for a long time, was it 9.0?), devel deps (which seem to be ok now), perl deps (which we inherited from Redhat who had them for RH 9 I think) or the new epoch stuff (which actually seems to be causing more problems and is due to rpm 4.2)? The perl dep regex *must* be fixed, it should at least look for a trailing ";", but I don't see any other non-standard cooker problems.
