I have no idea regarding RHEL 7 and so on, probably we will have these
issues in the future, who knows. But for current releases I think it would
better have ordinary package names as dependencies. It's more logical.

I have `neon-devel` installed since I have built the packages under RHEL 5
and 6 x86_64. As I have said before I don't consider it as a serious issue,
because there are no problems with mock for the moment.
