The most recent updates available for cauldron trigger a long chain of 
dependencies (about 55) to be installed for something that looks like a 
simple question of updating some font.

The message I get is
In order to satisfy the

dependency, one of the following packages is needed:
  1- fluxbox-1.3.2-4.mga3.x86_64: Windowmanager based on the original 
blackbox-code (to install)
  2- denemo-0.9.6-3.mga3.x86_64: WYSIWYG musical score editor and 
frontend for Lilypond (to install)
What is your choice? (1-2)

Continuing (using urpmi --test) Timidity is pulled in and many more 
packages - that does not look right. Am I the only one to have this problem?
