Hi Rainer,

I have reapplied the dependency today and resynchronized my test machine, so that the JRE5 Remove package was installed.

I have then reverted the dependency and synchronized once more, but this time removing the package did not result in any other package being removed too.

How should we proceed, since this happened to all my testing machines?
