Netbeans Dependencies

I just tried to update my Fedora 10 System to use Netbeans 6.5
(Platform) for some reason. I ended up with an upgrade of a bunch of
software, from texlive to avahi and other low level software

(reason is: even platform depends on netbeans-svnclientadapter which in
turn depends on ..... which in turn depends on ..... which in turn
depends on ....)

I suppose you know: All netbeans packages are "noarch" (and run with any
Java runtime 1.5 and up). Great!

If I don't use svn and therefore don't need svnclientadapter, why do I
have to update svn? Isn't we have to a restrictive dependency chain? Or
do I miss something?
