The surplus-dependency error tag used to be one of the most common
false positives in checkpg.  I've just committed a code change, which
allows *-devel packages to depend on any packages.  The detection is
based on pkgname (not the catalogname), and the regex used is:

CSW[a-z\-]+dev(el)?

This matches CSWfoo-devel, CSWfoo-dev, CSWfoodevel and CSWfoodev.

After you update your svn clients, you'll see messages about unused
overrides.  You will also no longer see the surplus-dependency errors
in new *-devel packages.
