I agree. At present the only packages that you should have forced are
the gcc-3.3 related packages if you had OpenOffice.org installed.

BTW, my machine is mostly up-to-date with the local mirror, by running
my update script from cron, which you can find somewhere on my site
(http://ranger.dnsalias.com/mandrake).

I don't agree. rpm has found a lot of perl packages that were in contrib
and used by some other package that is in main.

The regex is bad, and needs to be fixed, but there really aren't that
many packages that have non-existent perl requires. It is worthwhile
filing bugs on these packages so we know which ones need to be rebuilt
when the find-requires is updated (unless someone can show how to do it
with urpm?).
