i beg to disagree with all this because you act like if ppl were
installing from scratch the rpms from updates. ( like :


*** kdebase4-workspace-devel ***
----------------------------------------
Running checks for "kdebase4-workspace-devel" using media
"Core Release" and "Core Updates".
----------------------------------------
Mageia release 1 (Official) for i586
Latest version found in "Core Release" is kdebase4-workspace-
devel-4.6.3-7.mga1
Latest version found in "Core Updates" is kdebase4-workspace-
devel-4.6.5-1.3.mga1
----------------------------------------
The following packages will require linking:

canberra-common-0.27-2.mga1 (Core Release)
libbluez3-4.92-1.mga1 (Core Release)
libcanberra0-0.27-2.mga1 (Core Release)
libcln6-1.3.1-2.mga1 (Core Release)
libdmtx0-0.7.2-1.mga1 (Core Release)
libgpsd19-2.95-4.mga1 (Core Release)
liblm_sensors4-3.2.0-1.mga1 (Core Release)
libpolkit-qt-agent-1_1-0.99.0-1.mga1 (Core Release)
libqalculate5-0.9.7-7.mga1 (Core Release)
libqalculate-data-0.9.7-7.mga1 (Core Release)
libqimageblitz4-0.0.6-3.mga1 (Core Release)
libsmbclient0-3.5.8-1.mga1 (Core Release)
libssh4-0.4.7-1.mga1 (Core Release)
libtalloc2-2.0.5-2.mga1 (Core Release)
libwbclient0-3.5.8-1.mga1 (Core Release)
mageia-kde-translation-1-2.mga1 (Core Release)
polkit-kde-agent-1-0.99.0-2.mga1 (Core Release)
sound-theme-freedesktop-0.7-5.mga1 (Core Release)
xmessage-1.0.3-2.mga1 (Core Release)


mageia-kde-translation is for ex alrady required by kde in mageia and
not only added in updates, so ALL ppl having kde install WILL have it
installed so linking this is useless, and i think this can be valid
for a lot of deps listed too.

For vuze:

apache-commons-cli-1.2-5.mga1 (Core Release)
liblog4j-java-1.2.16-13.mga1 (Core Release)
log4j-1.2.16-13.mga1 (Core Release)
xml-commons-apis-1.4.01-5.mga1 (Core Release)

i think ( i can be wrong ) that all those packages were already
required by vuze )
because then, why not add java6 too :)
