cvs participates in dependency loops relevant to architecture bootstrap.
Instead of looking into such a difficult problem, I used reproducible
builds to look for easily droppable dependencies. It turns out that a
regular build of cvs exactly reproduces the binary artifacts of a build
with the attached patch applied (without d/changelog). Comparing the
build logs does not reveal skipped tests or like that. As such the
reduction seems safe:
* Drop bsdmainutils.
* Drop procps.
* Reduce texlive-{fonts,latex}-recommended to texlive-base.
Please consider applying the patch.
