firstboot depends on iptables
system-config-keyboard depends on firstboot

removing iptables removes firstboot which removes system-config-keyboard

handy yum command to know about:

yum deplist pkgname

for example:

yum deplist system-config-keyboard

But is it normal? system-config-keyboard has what to do with firstboot? 
As far as I know firstboot runs once after install. So how is it related 
to system-config-keyboard? Don't you think that this dependency is 
unusuall and must be removed? Maybe there should be a library on which 
firstboot and system-config-keyboard depends.

I don't have a problem with this dep but if you want to ask the
maintainer about it, file a bug.

firstboot has a keyboard configuration panel, which reuses lots of code
from system-config-keyboard to present that panel.  So no, there's
nothing unusual about it.  In past versions, it's also had a dependency
on system-config-securitylevel which also would have required iptables.

Anyway, F9 firstboot has neither panel so there's no such requirements.
