You are simply wrong here. Mozillas gecko engine is integrated to

Mozilla

Firefox and therefore *is not* a dependencie of Firefox.

On the other hand Mozilla *is* a dep of Galeon as it builds on top

Mozilla.

T.G.

And therefore, when I recently emerged Firefox 0.9.1, I was "upgraded"

to Mozilla 1.7 in the same process because

I recognize that it's not listed in the RDEPENDS for Firefox or

mozilla-launcher, but it seems clear from my experience (since if

Firefox was not dependent in some way on Mozilla, I would not have

installed Mozilla, and in fact I have never "actively" installed

Mozilla) that there is a real dependency, even if I can't tell you where

it comes from.
