The catch-22 is the X test and the Sound test do require these files so the dependency is valid; at the same time there are headless machines and many a machine without sound so we'll need to figure out what the balance here is as I see separating out each test into it's own package with it's own dependency as tedious and onerous so that doesn't seem like it. There may be something we can do with triggers or such to enable and disable tests based on post install requirements (eg. remove the dependency in the file and instead in the app disable sound and or X when not available). Not certain; going to have to think about this for a bit.
Should be resolved in 0.9-14.2 or higher
should be addressed in 0.9-14.8k available on people.redhat.com/rlandry/rhr2/test
