I'm getting lots of warnings like this:

The message in itself is correct. The package only has a runtime
dependency. It does not require the wireless-tools package to be built
or otherwise present on the build system. But what is the QA issue
here and how do I get rid of the message?
Surely if package B has a non-optional runtime dependency on package A
then package A must be built and present on the target ?
Yes, I agree.
But that does not help me understand the message. What does it want me
to do here?
The message seems to suggest that package A must be in the DEPENDS list
for package B, which is definitely not the case here. Package B contains
some scripts and config files, and has an architecture of "all" and can
be built even way before the compiler and C libraries are present on the
build host. Package A however needs lots of other things, and will
likely start building much later than that.
