You've hit the one big problem w/ rpm - to be useful to the largest audience, you have 
to build with all the options a package provides, which then becomes the minimal set.  
Try installing RedHat without any audio, printer or X-windows stuff, say you're just 
building a bridge.  You wouldn't believe the junk that get's brought in.

There's no conceivable reason why ntop needs the snmp enabled version of rrdtool.

Perhaps you should just use the source for rrdtool.  It should check your system, 
decide it's not there and build without.
