Details

Wine's configure fails without flex and bison present so these should be added to makedepends.

There also seem to be some possibly unnecessary (make) dependencies. One is arts which AFAIK had its support broken in wine for a while anyway and is optional. Then there's also sane dependency - I don't know how sane is used in wine, but wine seems to configure fine without sane.

arts and sane also have a lot of dependencies of their own, some of which are kde-related and fail on my system which has no kde. It seems unreasonable that all this stuff is required to build wine IMO.
This task depends upon

arts support has been removed upstream anyways, so wrecking that out wouldn't be a problem.

what's the big deal that it's a makedepend? It's not required for the end user and if you're makepkg'n anyways, you can easily remove it. Until we have a better way for optional dependencies in pacman, I bet packages will stay like this when it works.

2 Dale Blount: probably you know better, I've no idea what's the convention about cases like that. And I guess arts goes away in 0.9.35 in any case. Ignore anything except flex & bison then.
