--- Comment #2 from Tom "spot" Callaway <tcallawa@xxxxxxxxxx> ---
Template::Toolkit has always been a bit of a kitchen sink of a perl module. I'm
not sure why you attribute upstream changes into some Fedora evil conspiracy. 

Disk space, we're talking about 63 + 18 + 22 + 69 kB in already minimal X
libraries. We're not dragging in the entire X11 stack.

I just can't justify subpackaging the Template::Toolkit modules just to prevent
this, I suspect (but have not confirmed) that other things inside TT use
Template::Plugin::Image, so all it means is more dependencies and people who
are unhappy when yum install "perl(Template::Toolkit)" doesn't drag in
everything from TT provided by upstream.
