for some pkgs, i keep explicite deps listened in depends() because of

many are true positives but namcap does not know about it, because 
it's not a linking-dependency but a common sense one: if you install 
a frontend to something, this something may be a good idea to have.

e.g. all kde pkgs that rely on la-files to load plugins

from my point of view, this list would be interesting to investigate. 
for sure most are false positives but after grepping -v against bash 
and other typical false positives, the rest would be interesting to 
check. on the other hand, things may not be working if essential deps 
are missing, so probably you will not find anything really missing 
but just aesthetics ;) .
