  When doing a pkg_info on, eg. gnumeric, I get

	Requires:
	GConf>=1.0.0
	...
	gnome-libs>=1.0.53
	gnome-libs>=1.0.56
	gnome-libs>=1.2.1
	gnome-libs>=1.2.13
	gnome-libs>=1.2.3
	...
	libxml-*
	libxml>=1.8.10
	libxml>=1.8.14
	libxml>=1.8.5
	libxml>=1.8.9
	...


  Is there a deeper reason (other than "nobody cared") we can't compress
those to the highest version found?
