Your patch may not be entirely correct because for some reason all the
tpqt_*_generator calls have a DEPENDS some-xincludator, which is what
the other patch uses to depend onto, while you depend directly on the
spec files.

However, this xincludator DEPENDS seems unused and to be honest I don't
understand it at all, so for the time being I would say I prefer your
patch, since it's cleaner. If you can confirm that it fixes the issue,
then that's it.

I plan to take a closer look at this build system soon, since it's one
of the things that have annoyed me the most in the past. I think it can
be simplified a lot.

Not really, but you can be creative, I'm sure :)
Something that relates perhaps to your decision to make the release, or
something that relates to the season, or something with the features /
bugfixes?

Regards,
George
