From the 0.96-3.el6 specfile: %package devel Summary: Development files for polkit-gnome Group: Development/Libraries Requires: %name = %{version}-%{release} Requires: %name-docs = %{version}-%{release} %package docs Summary: Development documentation for polkit-gnome Group: Development/Libraries Requires: %name-devel = %{version}-%{release} Requires: gtk-doc The docs package really contains what it says, documentation, so there is no reason why it should depend on devel. I suspect the same goes the other way around, devel doesn't really depend on docs. In any case, if they really both depend on each-other, they should probably not be split in two separate packages. The general rule is to put docs apart, but circular dependencies coming out of the same srpm is not elegant.
