I've checked my packages. There seems to be quite a few false positives |
| 11 |
for RDEPEND not being in DEPEND as some of the packages, which I |
| 12 |
maintain, simply acts as a frontend to other packages, and thus doesn't |
| 13 |
have a build-time dependency for the backend. Do you want me to list all |
| 14 |
the packages affected in order to add them to the whitelist? |

You might want to whitelist packages having */-firmware in RDEPEND but |
| 17 |
not in DEPEND, as firmware is normally only a run-time dependency. |

I've fixed the remaining packages I maintain. |
