Hilko, I was looking at this bug:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=725504 There's a related issue with the Debian packaging, which is that the package as a whole requires big dependencies (eg. libguestfs0). However these are not needed by the base package, just by plugins. In Fedora we package the plugins as sub-packages, so if you install the base package you don't require the extra dependencies. If you install any plugin, it pulls in the base package. Here is the Fedora spec file: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/nbdkit.git/tree/nbdkit.spec and how that translates to packages: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=498452 (If you click "info" next to each RPM you can see the runtime Requires).
