But, if at least the maintainers built their packages using a clean chroot, they
would know what they are missing from base to include on depends. I don't think
we need to enforce that rule to the AUR, but it is a rule for repo packages for
a good reason. We could, however, suggest on the wiki, if it isn't already, that
even for the AUR, the *maintainers* build their packages using devtools.
