Agreed. But in case a dependency "loop" like this between some packages is not avoidable
In many cases where foo Requires foo-bar and foo-bar Requires foo, IMO, there shouldn't *be* a foo-bar subpackage at all. One example off the top of my head:
openoffice.org
openoffice.org-libs
What's the point of the separate -libs subpkg?
