Maybe you already had the dependencies installed for something else.
What I'm seeing is that I already had an older version of
xulrunner-devel installed without all of the dependencies and then when
I do an update to the newer version, I get an extra 43 dependencies.
Since I don't need it (AFAIK), I just removed the package and that
solved (or at least worked around) the problem. But it still doesn't
make sense. A new version of a package sometimes has a few new
dependencies, but 43 is a bit much.
