> +	Optional *Requires* for ordering calculations. IFF the capability
+	is present in a transaction, calculate ordering as if it was a
+	*Requires*.
+
+## Build dependencies
+Build dependencies only exist in the context of building a package
+with *rpmbuild*(1). They are not carried into binary packages at all,
+and are recorded as regular *Requires* and *Conflicts* in source rpms.
+
+*BuildRequires*
+	Capabilities that musth be present during the build of the package.
+
+*BuildConflicts*
+	Capabilities that must not be present during the build of the package.
+
+## Modifiers

Are these "modifiers" or "qualifiers"? I think in the past we called them "qualifiers" since they qualify the phase in which they apply to.
