I fear that's not the case, and the "if present" refers to whether subpackages
exist. It's just a poorly worded text for a generic check in fedora-review,
which treats the fully-versioned dep as a "MUST" and only excludes -debuginfo
subpackages. There are other exceptions, however:

Documentation packages really need not depend on base packages. In this case,
it's even a Development Documentation package that doesn't extend the base
package (but is for the -devel subpackage).
