You are right that it doesn't depend on the GNUstep core libraries,
but it should. See
http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2008/07/msg00068.html for some
explanation. (Yes, these are bugs, IMVHO RC as per Policy 8.6.)

The other packages in this situation are gnustep-netclasses and
pantomime1.2. If they don't get rebuilt, their reverse dependencies
(gnumail.app, lusernet.app, talksoup.app, viewpdf.app, etc.) will fail
miserably.
