Afaik that is a result of the policy of many package systems to add all
possible dependencies to a package. Debian is just stricter enforcing that.
(which is strange, since of all systems, Debian has a "suggests" system)

FPC, with all its header packages would thus have a tremendous amount of
dependencies. 

FreeBSD has the same problem. I never liked that either :-)
