You'd have to split this off as a new srpm. Current infrastructure constraints dictate Extras/Core must be split at srpm level. So any subpackage that is dropped has to be re-engineered as its own srpm to show up in Extras. Somehow I don't get the feeling Red Hat is prepared to expend the resources to re-engineer subpackages as new packages as general rule when there is pressure to prune subpackages. The subpackage barrier is somewhat problematic in this regard. -jef
