[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] RFE: BuildRequires generator (#104)

[Jeff Johnson]

If -- as this RFE seems to assume -- you are going to limit the implementation to "... (Rust, Python, golang) ..." that have alternative non-specfile means to specify BuildRequires, then all known rpm build systems will require a change to augment the installed files with newly discovered "dynamic" BuildRequires.

Repopulating a buildroot with additional "dynamic" BuildRequires and restarting an rpm build either needs to teach rpm how to install additional packages as a side effect of parsing, or needs to be handled by depsolvers that populate the buildroot (entirely out of scope for the current rpmbuild implementation) before rpmbuild is invoked.
