I am for removing this dependency, but I feel I have to correct your description. procps-ng is available on RHEL. The development library however is just available at boot-time, but only because no other packages depend on it. If we were to add a package that depended on it, it would then be available at runtime. I would remove any references to RHEL in your description, and just say you are reducing the dependency on this to simply building rtla. > > rtla uses procps-ng only to find the PID of the tracers' workload. > > I used the procps-ng library to avoid reinventing the wheel.
