That's what mach does, and I never saw it as a problem.  There's no
maintenance to be done - you give it a list of packages it needs to have
installed for the "build" target and if the rpm dependencies are mapped
ok it just works.  This is one of the first changes Seth made when
forking to mock IIRC.
