Two questions:

1) Why do we have this dependency here at all? Are we sure we don't need
it for some reasons?

2) Isn't the build of coreutils-native still broken? We should probably
hack it so it installs into some path prefix like
{python/perl/gzip/tar}-native or doesn't install the utils at all.

I've not taken the patch until we have some plans for the above issues.

Cheers,

Richard
