I think Gene's looking for something to create BuildRequires: lines in
rpm's he's creating.  (Correct me if I'm wrong Gene.)

Also, yum-builddep is broken on the FC6 systems I've tried it on.  It
never finds any src rpms.  I've tried it with all of the appropriate
source repos enabled in /etc/yum.repos.d as well as by trying to
enable them on the command line and always get the same results:

$ sudo yum-builddep coreutils
Setting up repositories
Error: No Package Matching coreutils.src

Meanwhile, yumdownloader can find the same package just fine:

$ yumdownloader --source coreutils
coreutils-5.97-12.2.fc6.s 100% |=========================| 5.0 MB    00:08

I queried the yum-devel list to see if I was just unlucky but I got
zero responses.  I've not made time to follow up with a bugzilla yet
either.  Does it work for you on FC6?  If so, what am I doing wrong
because it used to work for me in FC4 and FC5.
