Upon upgrading a F17 box today I notice "desktop-file-utils" wants to
pull in "emacs-filesystem". When I investigate the cause I find it to be
the Emacs packaging guidelines.
The guidelines now force any package that has Emacs add-ons to install
them in the main package and Requires: emacs-filesystem. Emacs is not
installed by default and I do not use Emacs, nor will I ever. I'm not
sure why having sub-packages was such a negative thing. Can we bring
back sub-packages?
