Guys,

Thanks very much for the comments - I have a better appreciation of the
automake issue now; I had just thought about it in terms of "what dependencies
are needed to develop?" instead of the technical directory ownership issue. 

It does seem on the face of it that moving /usr/share/aclocal to filesystem
would be a good idea, or at least some new automake-macros package which can
then be required and not bring in the entire automake system. However, that's
obviously something which needs agreement project-wide.

So in that context, I suspect the best solution right now is Requires:
automake. It solves the guideline issue, and it's consistent with other -devel
packages. I can put a comment in the spec. about keeping a weather-eye out for
changes to that, but I imagine there would be some mass bug-posting if that
changed anyway.
