Yes, i find it very strange too. I want my system to be as "gnome-free" as possible.

The latest xine-lib package, 1.1.1-1, depends on gnome-vfs. Can I ask
the reason for this packaging decision? The Arch Packaging Standards state:

Any *optional dependencies* that aren't needed to run the package or
have it generally function shouldn't be included, but a warning message
inside the .install file should echo something like: "To enable SMB
support, download the Samba package."

This is not a complaint, by the way - I'd just like to understand why I
suddenly need this optional dependency, along with all its dependencies.

In the meantime, I have successfully compiled and installed xine-lib
without gnome-vfs.
