While creating the Xfce spin for Fedora 8, I noticed a few packages
seem to
have a bad dependency list. NetworkManager-gnome has a hard dependency on
things like gnome-panel and gnome-keyring. Totem has a hard dependency on
gnome-desktop and gnome-themes. system-config-display has a hard dependency
on metacity. Are these really required?
gnome-keyring, gnome-desktop, metacity - definitely. You can file bugs
about the others if you feel strongly, but they may be hard requirements as
well.
