I hate kudzu, pleeease don't "fix" this by requiring kudzu in the package; just 
put an  "if -x kudzu" around it.  :)

Something similar done in mkinitrd-3.4.34-1

Red Hat Linux and Red Hat Powertools are currently no longer supported by Red
Hat, Inc. In an effort to clean up bugzilla, we are closing all bugs in MODIFIED
state for these products.

However, we do want to make sure that nothing important slips through the
cracks. If, in fact, these issues are not resolved in a current Fedora Core
Release (such as Fedora Core 5), please open a new issues stating so. Thanks.
