Yep. I had the same opinion as well but was hesitant

The following sentence does not make sense in the context of the
extended list, also I think that the dependencies should be listed one

e2fsprogs-devel from various distros.
The whole file looks very obsolete, mentions kernel module dependencies
as well. Not a priority, but I wouldn't mind trimming the unrelated
information and keep just what's related to userspace, eg. how to build,
run local tests, where to find git sources.
