PIL itself doesn't know about RPMs, it only looks for the include files
which the "-devel" packages install for you.
It might be that the RPMs for other packages would look for the -devel
packages before even starting, but that would mean you would not be
able to create a "lightweight" PIL without installing a bunch of
unnecessary stuff (or telling the RPM build process to ignore the
missing "-devel" packages).
