Details

I have a thing about not wanting any of either of the two major DEs installed on my computer. At any rate, it makes me double check everything I install so I don't accidentally install something that'll drag in half of GNOME unnecessarily. Now libsoup depends on gnome-common but there is no need for that. I don't have gnome-common installed but I can use ABS to build libsoup fine with a simple makepkg -d'. This dep isn't required so can it please be removed?
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Won't fix
Additional comments about closing:  As libsoup is installed in /opt/gnome and doesn't depend on any other lib in that prefix, a dependency for gnome-common is required.
