*nod* - doesn't appear to be explicitly needed here either (perhaps its for an
older RHEL variant).  On my system this appears to be a virtual package provided
by python:

$ repoquery --whatprovides python-ctypes
python-0:2.6.6-29.el6_3.3.x86_64

*shrug* - I guess the python packaging evolved differently on SLES.  If it does
turn out to be needed for older RHEL/Fedora that someone is still using, we can
do the conditional Requires magic we use for other dependencies.

cheers.
