+<PRE>i didn't want to be seen as offensive here, this was just a remark from what
+i've seen, and was odd TO ME. and i'm definately not the allknowing god here.
+
+wrt to the specifics, that's not what i'm talking about. if i thought these
+were bugs that *needed* fixing, it'd have filed them as such, these are merely
+observations i made. perhaps some can easily be improved, perhaps not.
+
+regardless of that, if something would be wrong (and i'm not saying it is),
+lack of manpower doesn't remove it's wrongness, it just means it's not as
+important and it's something for later. (and besides *wrong* is often quite
+relative)
+
+to *what* you are saying i don't disagree at all... the way you say it does
+come off as a bit defensive. as if you took my original message as an annoyance
+and an offensive statement (which i definately didn't mean to do)
+
+no hard feelings...

+</I>&gt;<i> i completely understand your point, i'm not saying these are packaging
+</I>&gt;<i> mistakes at all.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> but for something qt, it doesn't make much sense to have gnome-keyring code,
+</I>&gt;<i> except for when there would be kwallet and gnome-keyring plugins.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> 1. this more that xscreensaver requires chbg (does kscreensaver use this
+</I>&gt;<i> part? if not, maybe xscreensaver can be packaged separately), or chbg
+</I>&gt;<i> requires gtk+ code (maybe recode would be better to be gtk/qt independant)
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> 6. about gwenview, does it actually use these kipi-plugins all the time?
+</I>&gt;<i> does it use all of them, or just some kipi-plugins (if they are available).
+</I>&gt;<i> if latter, it might be better to suggest the specific ones alone, instead
+</I>&gt;<i> of all of them.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> 2, i understand for skype, but it's quite the dirty solution, perhaps a
+</I>&gt;<i> getter with requirements is better than just having everyone installing
+</I>&gt;<i> 32deps...
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> this indeed is a list of links that exist that i found odd, since they could
+</I>&gt;<i> be more abstract written and thus not directly link to each other.

+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; i have not answered to all, but nothing weird at all for me here, except
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; if
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; you want to recode all to remove the deps you don't like.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 1- xscreensaver is needed by kscreensaver, so nothing weird on the
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; packaging side. 2- this is needed for skype, if we don't this will not
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; work this is needed. 3- Because the code doesn't use phonon but
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; gstreamer, complain to qtwebkit devs. ( i think i don't tell mistakes
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; here ) 6- gwenview can use kipi-plugins so this is a suggests, this is
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; not weird at all, this just show you write about stuff you don't know and
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; softs you don't use ;) 7- hum this is normal.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 8- this is normal this is to help to migrate windows accounts, so this is
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; completly normal

+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 1. KDE requires gtk+

+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 3. qtwebkit requires gstreamer (not phonon)
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 4. KDE requires packagekit
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 5. hugin requires make
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 6. kipi-plugins suggested by gwenview
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 7. system-config-printer pulls in quite some gnome
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 8. transfugdrake required by userdrake
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 9. qtwebkit requires gnome-keyring
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 1. kdeartwork requires xscreensaver, which requires chgb, which requires
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; gtk+ 2. in spec file, requested for closed source 3rd party binaries that
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; are 32bit 3. libqtwebkit requires gstreamer directly... why not phonon
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 4. libqtwebkit requires also gst-install-plugin-helper and requires
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; packagekit 5. hugin directly requires make... why would a gui require a
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; buildtool? 6. gwenview really uses all kipi-plugins?
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 7. gnome-icon-theme,gnome-python,gnome-python-gnomekeyring _required_ by
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; s-c-p system-config-printer MUST have a gnome keyring? that would be
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; odd...
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 8. transfugdrake required by userdrake... odd
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 9. qtwebkit requires soup, requires lib64gnome-keyring, suggests
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; gnome-keyring
