True, but I think you'll find that a lot of the time a "-devel" package
that didn't require its related package would have to carry some or a
lot of overlap with that base package. This makes packing messy and
almost requires a "mysql-common, mysql, mysql-devel" to all exist...
*blech*. This is likely to be the case at least some of the time, and
better to be consistant anyway I think.
Its not that bad anyway IMHO.
