Well, that is an endless discussion. We rely on upstream TeX Live
for dependencies and add the most important. But if we add *every*
cross dependency, there will be no need fo rpackage splits, because
every installation will trigger an installation of all texlive-packages.
The network of cross-dependencies is too big and actually unknown.

Although I have added in former times these kind of dependencies, I am
more and more refraining from it, due to above reasons.

I will see.
