My understanding after spending about 2 seconds looking at the initial
part of https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Rootwrap is that nova-compute
likely doesn't execute these commands itself. I would thus assume
neither of Depends, Recommends or Suggests is suitable in this case and
the bug report should simply be closed.

Would be great to hear maintainers view on this.
