Rob,
I also need a linux distribution with only my locale ! ;)
These dependencies may sound rather like the selected locale on
installation ... ie. distributions are providing some set of locales
(desktop, applications, spell checker, menu, etc ...)
I suppose this section has been added for 'pure' power users who are
compiling like under BSD, Gentoo, or under some specific
distributions/desktop (KDE, mobile), where this type of package may be
missing.
We have the same type of issue with Linux Genealogy CD!
http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Linux_Genealogy_CD#TranslationsHere, sure we can compile and run Gramps, but packagers should add this
dependency for users! If users need these translations, then to try to
install gramps package will inform to also have others packages for
properly translating all GTK labels (the core one, which are not a part
of Gramps).
Same issue with SVG and icons (GNOME, XFCE, KDE?).
All are these specific stuff and are making Gramps more friendly
according to user's desktop. Related to Gramps' GUI but in relation with
the OS desktop.
Best regards,
Jérôme
