Safe to ignore. rpmlint assumes all dependencies which contain the explicit string "lib" are traditional library (with .so files inside) packages and can be autodetected, as opposed to explicitly stated. In your case, the explicit Requires is correct. ~spot -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
