How about a build dependency install option? I find myself building
packages pretty often and I would like to run one command like the
following:
yum builddep mpich
Which would install gcc, make, and XFree86-devel. I find this option
really helpful on debian systems. Eventually this could be expanded out
to allow something like pbuilder. pbuilder is useful as it "constructs
a chroot system, and builds a package inside the chroot. It is an ideal
system to use to check that a package has correct build-dependencies."
