Pulp

If a user installs pulp-server and then runs pulp-manage-db, it will fail:

$ sudo dnf install pulp-rpm-plugins pulp-docker-plugins pulp-ostree-plugins pulp-puppet-plugins pulp-python-plugins python-gofer-qpid

    $ sudo -u apache pulp-manage-db

Either the pulp-server package should declare its dependency on gofer, or the code should be altered to avoid using gofer.

I experienced this issue in the Fedora 24 package for 2.8.3, but I checked the upstream spec and it also has this problem.
