So you are telling me that your build machine doesn't have a few MB of 
harddisk to install corosync rpm? If that's the problem you are trying 
to solve, I think you have some other issues to solve first, because in 
that condition, you will likely be unable to apply any security updates 
to any of the other packages.

and as I explained in another email in this thread, we do have the exact 
same issue for users of pacemaker with corosync that finds themselves 
installing heartbeat. The major difference is that we do acknowledge the 
reason why is done that way and live with it. Life goes on.

Pacemaker, is one of the few pieces of software that links against 2 
competitive "cores". It is cool enough to add support for both at the 
price of a few extra MB of harddisk used on the final system, with the 
benefit that everything users might want, works out of the box.

So let's assume both heartbeat and corosync drops that Require lines, I 
am willing to bet in a matter of a week or two, somebody is going to 
report that installing pacemaker doesn't install required dependencies 
on corosync or heartbeat.
