For now it only requires libcom_err-devel, from inspection it looks like
that's the only set of headers that the e2fsprogs-devel headers include ...

I could do this though - but when would it get removed again; would it
be better to go with the short sharp shock and just clean it up in the
early phase of F12? :)

It doesn't much matter to me either way, though, really.
