If it were that easy:
$ rpm -qR glibc-devel|grep ^glib
glibc = 2.9-2
glibc-headers = 2.9-2
So, glibc-devel requires glibc-headers.
$ rpm -q --provides glibc-headers
glibc-headers(i386)
glibc-headers = 2.9-2
glibc-headers(x86-32) = 2.9-2
$ rpm -q --whatprovides glibc-headers
glibc-headers-2.9-2.i386
$ sudo rpm -e glibc-headers
Uh? That should not have been possible, because now:
$ rpm -V glibc-devel
Unsatisfied dependencies for glibc-devel-2.9-2.i386:
glibc-headers = 2.9-2 is needed by glibc-devel-2.9-2.i386
Can anyone reproduce this? Surely I cannot file a bug about glibc. This
looks more like a bug in RPM. F10 here, btw.
