Specify non-python dependencies

Cimbali opened this issue · 1 comments

I’d like to know if and how I can specify non-python dependencies.

The whole point of building an RPM is that I can now properly depend on capabilities that my package depends on, but that aren’t python packages. For example, a library such as libpoppler.

With bdist_rpm I can simply add these as bdist_rpm.requires in my setup.cfg file. What’s the pyp2rpm way, if there is one, to do this?

There is currently none. If we are ever to add one, it would be great to specify it trough something our RPM dependency generators and %pyproject_buildrequires could understand.
