Hi,

I have recently installed Fedora Rawhide via netinstall and there are
some questionable packages installed by default, such as:

cpp
libtomcrypt
libxcrypt-compat
exiv2

and I wonder what is the mechanism, which pulls these in? For example,
there is not much what would depend on cpp:

~~~
$ sudo dnf repoquery --whatdepends cpp

Instead of whatdepends use --whatrequire.

$ sudo dnf repoquery --whatrequires cpp

Depends seems to include `recommends` and `suggests`


Including `requires`, `recommends` and `suggests` is what I want and what actually is behind pulling in `cpp` at minimum.

I can't see it in kickstarts:


~~~
$ grep -R cpp

So what is the mechanism these are installed? Where I can report this?
Can't comment on all the packages you listed, but the C preprocessor
(CPP) is indeed required by xrdb (that's an option in xrdb, see "-cpp"
in man xrdb) and xrdb itself is required by GDM:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/gdm/blob/rawhide/f/gdm.spec#_80

GDM uses xrdb from its data/Init.in and data/Xsession.in:

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gdm/-/blob/main/data/Xsession.in#L118-129
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gdm/-/blob/main/data/Init.in#L31-34

Please note that these commands all use "xrdb -nocpp" so cpp is not
actually used there, but the package dependencies still pull it of
course.
