            Bug ID: 1230489
           Summary: BuildRequires on gcc not glibc-headers.
           Product: Fedora
           Version: rawhide
         Component: perl-XML-LibXML
          Assignee: jplesnik at redhat.com

Please replace the BuildRequires: glibc-headers with BuildRequires: gcc. The
new Fedora packaging guidelines require you define all the things you need in
the buildroot to build [1].

Given that this package has a C library it should BuildRequires: gcc, and that
is sufficient to bring in all of the required core C libraries and headers to
compile C code.

The reason I'm asking is because glibc-headers may or may not be removed in the
future and it isn't sufficient to guarantee the package builds.
