Jerome,
python3 is an implicit dependency of vpp-devel and I am not sure why.
Because of that I put python36 explicitly in Requires because I was
concerned about cross versions of Python between 34 and 36 having side
affects.
As for epel-release, it is harmless but is not strictly required
installation time but I wanted to make sure the epel repo was installed
so further dependency checks were resolved from the correct repo.

Jerome,
Let me take a look at this today. I will submit a patch to take them
out if I can verify that they are not needed.

Hi Thomas,
In https://gerrit.fd.io/r/#/c/18953/ you are putting epel-release and
Python3 into the dependencies.
1. I can understand that those are needed as /BuildRequires:/, but
are they really needed for /Requires: /?
2. Why do we need epel-release as runtime requirement?
3. Do we really need Python3 for VPP 19.04 itself?
