Actual Results:  
qemu-trace-stap list qemu-system-x86_64

Comment 1 Richard W.M. Jones 2025-03-03 17:54:22 UTC
Probably:

 %package tools
 Summary: %{name} support tools
+Recommends: systemtap-client
 %description tools
 %{name}-tools provides various tools related to %{name} usage.

(Suggests is also possible, but for most users that would also break.)
