The only hard-coded deps that can't be met at the moment are on the
meta-packages for installing all the beryl bits. As mentioned, the
initial beryl-core package had no unresolved deps, but subsequent
discussion while reviewing other beryl components led to the creation of
some meta-packages to make installing all beryl bits easier for
end-users. I guess I wasn't thinking when I pushed the beryl-core build
w/the meta-packages enabled. My apologies for being "totally stupid". Of
course, this would be (mostly) moot by now had cvs not taken a
nose-dive... :)
