Yeah - that's very strange. I know this test system installed 2.6.7
just fine without those dependencies (because it's the system on which
I built and tested the 2.6.7 packages that are now in the Fedora and
EPEL repos). It's only asking for them now that I'm trying to install
2.7.0.Beta0. You SURE nothing else changed that's suddenly triggering
the dependencies?
