hi

nagios-plugins main package currently in CVS HEAD has extra dependencies 
because the plugins require it

# TODO: move these to subpackages to kill deps from main nagios-plugins 
package?
# check_ntp
Requires:   ntp-client
# check_dns, check_dig
Requires:   bind-utils
# check_by_ssh
Requires:   openssh-clients
# check_uptime
Requires:   procps
# check_fping
Requires:   fping

what to do in this case, move them to subpackages, so pure nagios-plugins 
doesn't have those extra deps. or just leave as it is now as openssh-clients 
is installed almost any machine?

altho fping dep is maybe not wanted (another suid program in system)
and ntp perhaps (not everyone wants to monitor ntpd)
