Description of problem:
I don't think ethereal-gnome needs to require gnome-desktop. I think this is a
hold over from the Gnome1 days. Only ethereal-gnome and gaim are the only
standalone applications that have this requirement. If it is a valid requirement
because of the placement of icons or something I suggest the icons be moved into
gaim and the dependecy removed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rpm -e --nodeps gnome-desktop
2. rpm -i ethereal-gnome

Actual Results:  ethereal requires gnome-desktop

Expected Results:  ethereal-gnome to install

Comment 1 Phil Knirsch 2002-08-07 12:21:12 UTC 
Should be fixed in ethereal-0.9.5-2 (at least i have it installed without
gnome-desktop and get no dependancy problems).

Read ya, Phil
