you blew away my changelog in the spec file 
http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/rpms/totem-pl-parser/OLPC-3/totem-pl-
parser.spec?rev=1.14&view=markup

it was branched before you trimmed the dependencies.   I really would like to 
work out how we could spit out -minimal packages from the main ones so that 
you could use either.  maybe a kde user wants totem without pulling in half of 
gnome ;)
