Do you think they’re not needed, or are you sure they’re not needed?

I think and find occurrences of this, another example:

  # rpm -q --requires krb5-devel | grep libselinux-devel
  libselinux-devel

but an application using krb5-devel doesn't need to link with selinux directly. Another email on this thread point that some are needed for headers, but krb5-devel headers doesn't includes selinux headers

  # rpm -ql krb5-devel | grep \\.h$ | xargs grep -l selinux
  <None>

  # grep Requires.private /usr/lib64/pkgconfig/libselinux.pc
  Requires.private: libsepol libpcre2-8
