Is the requirement of javadoc for eclipse-platform really necessary?
javadoc is huge!
What do you mean? You mean you don't want the docs as part of the
platform? This is part of the classic debate about whether we split
packages into super-small pieces or keep them relatively close to their
upstream downloadable counterparts. I've tended to favour the latter but
I'm not married to that way of doing things.
/usr/share/javadoc isn't relevant here.

Well, it is, but I suppose not directly:
[root@cynosure ~]# du -sh /usr/share/javadoc/java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-1.4.2.0
235M /usr/share/javadoc/java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-1.4.2.0
[root@cynosure ~]# rpm -e java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-javadoc
error: Failed dependencies:
java-javadoc is needed by (installed)
eclipse-platform-3.1.2-1jpp_13fc.i386
[root@cynosure ~]# rpm -e eclipse-platform

If I'm only going to be programming with eclipse in C/C++/Fortran using
the CDT, I don't want a *LOT* (235MB!) of Java API documentation as well.
