Specifically, the packages you've pointed out have already been
rebuilt. I just
temporarily disabled the tests and the BuildRequires, rebuilt, then rebuilt
again when the BR were done.
Hmm... if the BuildRequires are not actually needed to build the package (which
is evidently true, since you built it without them) then surely they should not
be marked as BuildRequires? They are just nice-to-have packages which may
enable some extra tests to run, but the resulting package builds perfectly
either way.
(If having the full test suite is important, you could still do the
build-install-rebuild cycle as at present, since the tests automatically turn
themselves on if the other modules are present. But it would no longer be
necessary to manually comment and uncomment the not-really-required
BuildRequires lines, which seems a bit of a charade.)
Thanks for the link to what you've built so far.
