okay, so i might be getting on the nerves of some people with my rhetoric about unnecessary dependencies, and i am really sorry about that. i just don't seem to understand why a package like chez-scheme-9.5 has to depend upon x11 libraries; libX11, libxcb, libXdmcp, xorgproto and libXau. the rest, i.e. libxml2 and libpthread are understandable, but why x11? also, would like to know the method to find the name and email address of a package creator/maintainer so that i can contact him/her directly, that would be better than tormenting this mailing list, i think. ;-) and is it possible to accomplish the above using the "pkg" tools. thanks, ~mayuresh
