Why does autoconf need cvs?
It isn't autoconf but /usr/bin/autopoint from gettext-devel which requires cvs. See bug 148011 Add a BuildRequires: gettext-devel like you did in the development tree to fix this
Oh, thanks, I thought I had seen it somewhere...
I removed autoconf from devel package, it isn't needed any longer....
