The dependency required by most packages needing render is older
render-0.2. As far as we know, render-0.2 is good enough.
But at least one of firefox's dependencies (Xrender) needs some newer
render feature to build, so it specifically lists it needs the newer
version.
It is not a problem as far as I know.
