The RH7.2 install seems to do reasonably well, even if it is a bit too
coarse grained for me (you can either satisfy all dependencies, or not
install any of the offending packages). Yes, I understand that this was
probably a design decision because the average user that RH is aiming
at probably can't cope with anything other than an "all or nothing"
decision. But that doesn't mean I have to like it...
