Under security considerations this dependency is absolutely ridiculous!

Because it results in two additional running services with 5 open
ports.

tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:36711 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 0 18707 6338/rpc.statd
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:111   0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 0 18341 6194/portmap
udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:32769 0.0.0.0:*        0 18704 6338/rpc.statd
udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:1002  0.0.0.0:*        0 18696 6338/rpc.statd
udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:111   0.0.0.0:*        0 18338 6194/portmap

It is not problem for me because I shutdown unused services and use a
firewall but the installation of unwanted software is absolutely
annoying and the security impact for the whole distribution should be
considered.
