If you start doing it for one package, it's a slippery path.
Wine have written themselves out of the upstream vendors I'm not sure we
should be any difference.
Indeed and I would rather not do it all. (I could even live with the
stock subversion from RHEL)
In fact, we could make an exception for BuildRequires that do not turn up
to be Requires. In this case we could create a seperate repository (eg.
buildtools) that consists solemnly out of (newer) packages needed for
building normal packages.
There used to be a make bug that hindered us for building certain RHEL2
and RH7 packages, while in itself a newer make would have fixed the
problem for everyone.
So I wouldn't flat out dismiss this, not even for wine.
