It was the sense of my remark, doing unit test implied a developement
case so it was logical to automatically install erlang-dev when
requesting install off erlang-eunit, maybe I misunderstood but you seem
to be agree if not what do you consider (if it the case) adding a
depends on erlang-dev to erlang-unit package is not a good idea ?

Lots of packages does not include .hrl files they are in erlang-dev so
I'm not sure it's a good idea to move .hrl to erlang-eunit.

Maybe someone can give to us another point of view.
