I fully agree with Jordi and don't consider this a bug. Meta packages are here
to provide sensible defaults, and by your reasoning, we could remove all of its
dependencies.
If you don't like its dependencies, you can just remove the meta package. It's
not like you will loose too much...
Cheers,
Emilio
