when using the text mode installer and decied to remove packages after the installer has calculated dependencies, it never re-evaluates the dependencies. This causes a problem if you decied to remove a package, when you again continue form the package selection screen, the same dependencies are shown, even if all of the packages have been de-selected. As an example, I develope SDL using the latest version from source and chose not to install it, but I had selected to install the multimedia packages. This included the smpeg library, which has SDL as a dependency. When I went back and removed smpeg (and other packages related to SDL), I was still told that the SDL library was required.
