That's what he's saying above, there is no package named pulp-rpm-server 
anymore. That was only meant to couple the RPM plugins and the server 
itself. You'll need to mention those specifically, the rest should be 
taken care of by dependencies.

You could get away with pulp-rpm-plugins. Those have a dep on the 
server. For your purposes that's fine.
