None, they are all devel packages.  Actually, now that I take a closer
look, the main dependencies are:

freetype-devel
startup-notification-devel
pango-devel
libgnome-devel
libXt-devel
gtk2-devel
libjpeg-devel
libgnomeui-devel
libIDL-devel
libXrender-devel
gnome-vfs2-devel
alsa-lib-devel
libnotify-devel

Then these start pulling in their own dependencies and I wind up with a
list of 43 new packages being installed for dependencies.  I just find
this really strange since none of these were required for the previous
version.
