OK, your later messages explain it better. I'll have to look at
texlive-collection-formatsextra; it's possible that it needs to require
texlive-collection-fontsrecommended. But a better solution to your immediate
problem would be for someone to look at docbook-utils and see whether it
really needs texlive-collection-formatsextra. It currently requires the
obsolete texlive-collection-htmlxml, which pulls in a lot of other packages,
probably unnecessarily in most cases. See
https://cygwin.com/packages/summary/texlive-collection-htmlxml.html
That would require a TeX-y who knows the TeX relationships of the files.
From what I can see jadetex and pdfjadtex are used by docbook-utils,
OK, so docbook-utils definitely needs texlive-collection-formatsextra, which is
what I hoped to avoid. In that case, it's probably not worth checking whether
it needs the other dependencies of texlive-collection-htmlxml.
And jadetex needs texlive-collection-fontsrecommended for marvosym, so I need to
fix the dependencies of texlive-collection-formatsextra. I'll do that shortly.
Thanks for reporting the problem.
