Is is valid in a RPM spec file to have a build requirement on a specific file,
for example

BuildRequires: /usr/bin/perl

This makes a lot of sense when you have a script that explicitly calls
/usr/bin/perl; any other path is going to fail.

However, the build service does not understand this and the package does not
build because it is "unresolvable".
