That's because zanata-client is written in Java and has its
Java-specific dependencies which have their dependencies and so on.
If you had any other similar Java-based application installed in
your system you'd have much less new dependencies to install.

It's similar to what you'd have if you installed the first
Python-based (or GNOME-based) application on totally Python-free
(or GNOME-free) installation.

Do you think it's a bad idea to write the Zanata client in Java?
If it was possible to write an alternative client in Python would
you also like to write a client in other languages, for example
purely native in C or C++? Is it possible at all?

Rafal
