[fedora-java] why does openjdk need to depend on netbeans?

[Harshad]

Hi,

I just tried installing java-1.6.0-openjdk-devel, and this causes a 38M download because of a dependency on netbeans. Is this really intended or is there a bug/oversight? (I am on a limited download internet connection)

Here's my complete yum trace:

yum install java-1.6.0-openjdk-devel.i386
