Description of problem: Found some random BeanShell Desktop application in my Gnome memu. I don't need a Java console thingy, so I tried to remove it. Then yum wants to remove openoffice.org-core. This is odd. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): openoffice.org-core-2.4.0-9.1.fc9.i386 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install openoffice.org-core 2. Watch random bsh package get brought in as a dependency 3. Scratch head Actual results: bsh is installed Expected results: I dunno... no weird java gui thing in my menu? Additional info: If there is a real dependency on bsh for some reason (such as a library or jar or something), then perhaps splitting bsh into bsh and bsh-desktop packages would be better. At the moment, everyone gets BeanShell Desktop installed and that seems wrong.
It is not a packaging error for OOo to depend on bsh. i.e. it's part of the vanilla openoffice.org for editing macros, and on fedora we use the fedora packaged bsh. i.e. it can be seen in tools->macros->organize macros->beanshell Having a bsh split into a bit with menus and without might make sense to reduce menu clutter.
Fixed in Rawhide. The bsh package now has a desktop subpackage which contains the menu entry.
