Not really, since the fix would break the people that now did upgrade
to this package (which BTW were structured like this for over two
months in bleeding and testing, but obviously no one tested them with
a partial install and an upgrade), but there is an easy workaround
(other than installing all and starting to remove the parts you don't
want):

rpm -e --nodeps libmyth
smart upgrade --update
