Just an FYI, the intent was to replace this code completely with a patch to RPM 
when it got upgraded.  Then RPM could read in the dependencies directly and not 
have to worry about hacky script solutions.

Needless to say we're not yet at that point, so this is fine..  but hopefully 
we're getting closer.
