[libvirt] [PATCH] spec: Drop polkit from {,Build}Requires:

Posted by Andrea Bolognani 7 years, 11 months ago

As of 2499d1a09508 we don't link against libpolkit or look for
the pkcheck command anymore, so these package relationships are
no longer necessary and can be safely dropped.

We still require polkit to be installed - the "polkit" RPM is what
provides the DBus service we talk to.

That makes sense.

So the Requires: need to stay; the BuildRequires: can be dropped
though, right? Or at the very least we should be able to remove
any reference to polkit-devel and only {,Build}Requires: polkit,
as we're definitely no longer linking against any library.

Yeah the -devel is not needed, since m4/virt-polkit.m4 only looks at the
--enable-polkit and --enable-dbus args now
