I am not a Fedora packager, just a longstanding user, but I am a project admin 
and heavy contributor to the FreeCol upstream.  Tritonus (and vorbisspi) are 
used to provide media support in freecol, so the above repoquery is correct to 
show a dependency.  However there are moves afoot to drop these dependencies, 
which will hopefully land in the next FreeCol release (0.10.6).  Predictably, 
I can not give you a release date for 0.10.6, but `before F18' is likely.  So, 
if you wish to drop tritonus in F18, rest assured that is fine with us.

Cheers,
Mike Pope
