Good question, unfortunately I can't find the reason documented anywhere...

It looks like this build requirement was added in SLE-12:Update, since if was
not present in GA (year 2015).

Also, I can't find any explicit reference to anything provided by the s-m-t
package that would be needed to build dracut.

Maybe we can get rid of this, I'll try to build dracut removing it to see what
happens:
