The filesystem package is a required part of a Fedora install - you can't have
one without it.  If you take a look at the requirements chain, filesystem is
required by basesystem, and basesystem is required by glibc.  So to uninstall
filesystem you'd have to uninstall glibc.  Since explicit requirements on glibc
are not needed, I don't think that we need an explicit requirement on filesystem.

I talked with the author on IRC ("Company" - usually can be found in #gstreamer
on chat.freenode.net).  He said that he'd have to get access to the box in
question or at least get some more information to diagnose the segfault.  Is
there anyone else out there that could give this package a try?
