[aur-general] PKGBUILD: depends vs. makedepends and namcap warning

Dear AUR list,
simple question about dependencies in PKGBUILDs:
Package A provides some header files and build scripts. Package B
provides additional headers, and their usage only work out if A's
headers are in place. Additionaly, package B can only be compiled using
A's build scripts.
1) Is it correct to have package A in B's depends AND makedepends arrays?
2) Am I supposed to ignore namcap's warning 'Dependency included and not
neede' because it doesn't take header dependencies into account?
Thanks in advance for clarification,
Lukas
