gnome-hello

[Mike Hearn]

You could simplify that considerably by stripping bogus dependencies. 
HelloWorld doesn't *really* depend on libXi, that's just an 
implementation detail of a dependency sucked in by pkg-config to please 
linkers which insist on closing the symbol set at compile time.

The latest binutils (by latest I mean, within the last month or so, so 
maybe CVS) has an --as-needed option which fixes this, or you can use 
apgcc which does the same thing more slowly using a wrapper perl script.

That way you'd reduce the number of edges on that graph :)
