Check what I sent you earlier: the only additional library which libpangoxft pulls in is libXft; look at ldd -r on librdd4 and you will see that it requires all this already, it's not a pango packaging problem. > So I do not know a way out of this situation but I find it a bit > annoying having to pull such a lot of packages, among them a some > which are only necessary for ouput on displays (which is definitely > not a server's task): > libdirectfb-1.0-0 libx11-6 libx11-data libxau6 libxcb-render-util0 > libxcb-render0 libxcb-xlib0 libxcb1 libxdmcp6 libxrender1 directfb is via cairo. I think that if you want to do something concrete, you'll have to look into making RRD use less external X libs; it currently relies on X libs. Perhaps you can parse RRD data without graphic output and only dump raw contents? Anyway, pango's packaging is fine; I'm happy to help if you find a better idea. -- Loïc Minier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
