I'd assume that matchbox-panel-manager depends on matchbox-panel, but it doesn't.Well, these are how they were done originally, (my own efforts also did them as individual packages). What is the policy on lumping small packages together?
The policy is to create a package structure that simplifies the maintenance of these packages. It may, however, be nice to provide a meta-package that simply lumps all of the small packages as dependencies for the meta-package, e.g. meta-pkgs/gtk2-extras or meta-pkgs/suse9.
