There you said it: installing build dependencies is actually manipulating
binary rpms, that's the only thing I meant with my "I'm beginning to
think this should go into yum itself" comment. Stuff like grabbing remote
src.rpm's belong to yum-src which, if installdeps goes into yum, wouldn't
require root for anything.
