Comment 1 Karsten Hopp 2011-12-28 20:58:49 UTC
The dependency on fedora-usermgmt is intentional:

dictd needs to create a new user entry and a new group in /etc/passwd and /etc/group. This can be done manually in the spec file or it can be done as described on https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageUserCreation
