It's not about removing the dependency, it's about removing the module
*usage*, and these packages, I assume, use the module without depending on
it, so they didn't get those bugs filed (I mean, I haven't checked if they
don't have those bugs, maybe some of them do).

Yes, the solution is removing the module usage, but if that's not possible
a dependency needs to be declared, as usual.
