[Bug 810279] [NEW] Installing Krita also brings me Kexi and KSpread

[Steve Riley]

Public bug reported:

I wanted to install only Krita, but noticed that Kexi and KSpread came
along for the ride. Following the dependencies, I see that Krita depends
on koffice-libs, which makes sense. Here's where it gets weird: koffice-
libs depends on Kexi, which I don't understand: why would the libs be
dependent on this particular app? Kexi, in turn, depends on KSpread,
which also appears unnecessary.

I prefer not to keep unused applications installed on my system. But I
also don't like leaving unbroken dependencies, so I guess I'll let Kexi
and KSpread stick around for a while. It would be very interesting to
learn why the dependencies map this way, though. Thanks.

Additional info requested for bug reporting:
1. Release: Kubuntu 11.04
2. Version: Krita 1:2.3.3-0buntu4
3. Expected: install only Krita
4. Happened: got Kexi and KSpread, too
